1. Characteristics of nearside car crashes : an integrated approach to side impact safety
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Approximately 1.25 million people globally are killed in traffic accidents yearly. To achieve the UN Global Goal of a 50% reduction of fatal and serious injuries in 2020 a safer infrastructure, as well as new safety technologies, will be needed. Side crashes represent 20% of all serious and 25 % of fatal injuries. LÄS MER
2. Car-To-Car Side Impacts: Development and Validation of Mathematical Models and their Usability for Protective System Design
Sammanfattning : The objective of the present work was to develop and use mathematical models to establish principles for protective systems for occupants in car-to-car side impacts. The efforts in this work have concentrated on the protection of the thorax and abdomen since these body parts are most frequently injured in side impacts. LÄS MER
3. Child Safety in Car Crashes
Sammanfattning : Traffic related trauma is the most common cause of fatality and severe injury to children in developed countries. The majority of these fatalities and injuries are caused by frontal and side impacts. LÄS MER
4. Finite element simulation of airbag deployment and optimization in crashworthiness design
Sammanfattning : The passive safety of cars is of uttermost importance for the automotive industry. To improve the safety of cars, computer simulations of the vehicle and occupant system by the Finite Element Method (FEM), have become an industry standard tool. LÄS MER
5. Stochastic finite element simulations of real life frontal crashes : With emphasis on chest injury mechanisms in near-side oblique loading conditions
Sammanfattning : Introduction. Road traffic injuries are the eighth leading cause of death globally and the leading cause of death among young people aged 15-29. Of individuals killed or injured in road traffic injuries, a large group comprises occupants sustaining a thorax injury in frontal crashes. The elderly are particularly at risk, as they are more fragile. LÄS MER
