Development of economical vehicle model for pedestrian-friendly front-end profile study

An economical and deformable, hybrid model is developed for studying the effect of vehicle geometry on pedestrian fall kinematics and associated head injury. A simplified structure consisting of finite element surfaces and a Multi-body windshield is built using a series of iterative and no-iterative...
