Abstract:

This study developed and demonstrated an efficient tool to accurately predict occupant pre-crash kinematics in response to different types of vehicle pre-crash maneuvers. A literature review revealed crash avoidance maneuvers come in three categories: braking, steering, and a combination of braking and steering, with braking being the most common maneuver. Since no efficient and parametric active finite element (FE) human model for pre-crash maneuvers was currently available, one was developed by simplifying the midsize male global human body model consortium (GHBMC) simplified model, the GHBMC-M50-OS v1.8.4 (GHBMCsi) and adding proportional-integral-derivative controllers to the joints to simulate active muscle effects. Twelve models were also generated to cover the range of kinematics in pre-crash maneuvers.
