FEM-based Methodology for Crash Severity Estimation in Frontal Crash Scenarios

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract With the technological development of forward-looking sensors, researchers are exploring their use not only for advanced driver assistance systems but also to gain important pre-crash information. Based on this pre-crash information, if the occupant motion inside the vehicle structure can be predicted for the oncoming crash ...

Pedestrian Injury Severity in Automobile Crashes

open access: yesOpen Journal of Safety Science and Technology, 2013
This paper analyzes pedestrian injury severity from automobile crashes at signalized intersections in a medium-size city. It estimates an ordered logit model of injury severity and finds that vehicle type, gender, land-use, speed limit, traffic volume, the presence of sidewalks and visual-obstruction significantly explain pedestrian injury severity
