The tests for pedestrian protection which is using in automotive accreditation are recommended by the European Enhanced Vehicle-Safety Committee (EEVC). According to this method, only three region are evaluated for injury level, including: head, femur and leg region.

A problem is whether it is possible that when testing ensures safety for the head, femur and leg regions, but the danger to pedestrians life comes from injuries to other regions. To solve this problem, this study will perform simulation of car impact to pedestrian full model to analyze and compare injury levels between different regions. Thereby, evaluating whether the testing method proposed by EEVC can evaluate the safety of the entire pedestrian body.

摘要

The tests for pedestrian protection which is using in automotive accreditation are recommended by the European Enhanced Vehicle-Safety Committee (EEVC). According to this method, only three region are evaluated for injury level, including: head, femur and leg region. There are many other important region in pedetrian body such as neck, chest, etc. are not evaluated. A problem is whether it is possible that when testing ensures safety for the head, femur and leg regions, but the danger to pedestrians life comes from injuries to other regions. To solve this problem, this study will perform simulation of car impact to pedestrian full model to analyze and compare injury levels between different regions. Thereby, evaluating whether the testing method proposed by EEVC can evaluate the safety of the entire pedestrian body. The results of this research will contribute to develop the perfect methods of testing for pedestrian protection.
