Evaluation of an Active Bonnet for Pedestrian Protection
Original language description
In vehicle-pedestrian impact, the majority of pedestrian fatalities are caused by head injuries. Accident analysis showed that bonnet of car often had consequences with severe head injuries in accidents involving young and short pedestrians. Important factor involving risk of head injury is design of bonnet structure, often supported by underlying reinforcement and engine bay structures. Design of those structures has the potential to reduce the severity of the resulting head injuries Discussion of influence of chosen system of active hood to impact responses of impacting pedestrian body is aim of the study. Both simulations of dummy - vehicle collision and headform impact test ware simulated, impact responses ware measured and according to injury criteria the relevant injury risks was calculated. An influence of the active bonnet to impact responses in contrast with impact responses of the traditional bonnet design was evaluated on the base of simulation data.
