Application of crash pulse on the car crashworthiness design
Crash pulse is an acceleration curve measured in the car during a crash test. The shape, time duration, and maximum acceleration of crash pulse may influence the predicted motion of the occupants.

Experimental observations of an 8ms-1 drop test of a metallic helicopter underfloor structure onto a hard surface: part 1 [PDF]
: This is the first part of a two-part paper that describes the experimental observations for two similar sections of floor that were dropped onto both hard and water surfaces at 8 m/s, as a part of one experimental campaign.

Finding Crash-Consistency Bugs with Bounded Black-Box Crash Testing
We present a new approach to testing file-system crash consistency: bounded black-box crash testing (B3). B3 tests the file system in a black-box manner using workloads of file-system operations. Since the space of possible workloads is infinite, B3 bounds this space based on parameters such as the number of file-system operations or which operations ...

Crash test using a car with automatic pre-crash braking [PDF]
The utilisation of secondary-safety systems to protect occupants has attained a very high level over the past decades. Further improvements are still possible, but increasingly minor progress is only to be had with a high degree of effort.

Passive Occupant Safety Solutions for Non-Conventional Seating Positions
In a fully autonomous vehicle, the driver becomes a passenger, free to adopt different seating positions. This change challenges traditional passive safety systems—such as seatbelts, airbags and seat design—that are optimised for a forward-facing ...
