Sensitivity analysis of the newly design tram front-end with respect to variations of the pre-impact conditions
Original language description
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the pedestrian to tramway crash scenario via a simulated model that tests various initial conditions of the pedestrian in front of the vehicle. The tramway was simplified into a model of the front end only, based on the real geometry data of the Skoda tram. Virthuman, a fully validated model of a human body, was used for the simulations in ESI Virtual Performance Solution software [1]. Real experimental data of the human gait phases were investigated for the sensitivity analysis, as well as the effect of various initial conditions and different pedestrian sizes. The study examined three different tramway designs for the analysis, in order to ascertain how all the above-mentioned conditions affect the results and either fulfil or exceed the defined threshold for the pedestrian safety.
