A systematic treatment of current crashworthiness practice in the
automotive, railroad and aircraft industries. Structural, exterior
and interior design, occupant biomechanics, seat and restraint
systems are dealt with, taking account of statistical data, current
regulations and state-of-the-art design tool capabilities. Occupant
kinematics and biomechanics are reviewed, leading to a basic
understanding of human tolerance to impact and of the use of
anthropometric test dummies and mathematical modelling techniques.
Different types of restraining systems are described in terms of
impact biomechanics. The material and structural behaviour of
vehicle components is discussed in relation to crash testing. A
variety of commonly used techniques for simulating occupants and
structures are presented, in particular the use of multibody
dynamics, finite element methods and simplified macro-elements, in
the context of design tools of increasing complexity, which can be
used to model both vehicles and occupants. Audience: An excellent
reference for researchers, engineers, students and all other
professionals involved in crashworthiness work.
