A Study on Influence of Minivan Front-End Design and Impact Velocity on Pedestrian Thorax Kinematics and Injury Risk
Thoracic injuries occur frequently in minivan-to-pedestrian impact accidents and can cause substantial fatalities.The present research work investigates the human thoracic responses and injury risks in minivan-to-pedestrian impacts, when changing the minivan front-end design and the impact velocity, by Panel Hardware using computational biomechanic
