Development and Validation of Human Body Finite Element Models for Pedestrian Protection
The pedestrian is one of the most vulnerable road users. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), traffic accidents cause about 1.34 million fatalities annually across the world. This is the eighth leading cause of death across all age groups. Among these fatalities, pedestrians represent …

Protection of Standing and Seated Pedestrians Using Finite Element Analysis
In the United States pedestrian fatalities in vehicle impacts have increased over the last 40 years and pedestrians who use wheelchairs (seated pedestrians) have higher mortality rates than standing pedestrians in vehicle impacts. Standing pedestrian protection has generated increased attention and …

Development and Validation of a Child Finite Element Model for Use in Pedestrian Accident Simulations
… and injury among children aged 5 to 14. The pedestrian lower-extremity represents the most frequently injured body region in car-to-pedestrian accidents. Several sub-system tests (head, upper and lower legs) were developed for pedestrian protection in Asia and Europe. However, with exception …
