Comparison of HIC Values during Train-Car Collisions

Original language description

Accident statistics show that a collision of a train with a car has a significant share of the number of traffic accidents. It also ranks among the most tragic. Three crash tests were made simulating side impact of a railway vehicle in a car on a level crossing because of monitoring biomechanics of injury. This study pays particular attention to head injuries. Head acceleration in all three axes was captured on a mannequin during an impact to the Skoda Superb and Skoda Favorit vehicles. The most commonhead injury criterion (HIC) was selected as a quantitative indicator for comparison. It turned out that a contact of the head with an element of the interior and whether or not the out-of-position occurs during the impact play an important role in the severity of head injuries.
