In this book are analyzed the most important aspects of automobile crashworthiness in rear-end collisions and in fire events: causes of injuries, crash tests for the assessment of occupant protection and fire hazard, biomechanics and dummy kinematics, structural behavior of the vehicle.
In the last part are discussed the design criteria concerning the vehicle structure – body, chassis and fuel system – and the seat system.
The fire hazards are analyzed in all aspects: vehicle architecture, fuel system and electric system design, risk of damages in the different types of road accidents. Then follow the recommendations on how to reduce the risks of fire events.
The aim is to give an overall view of the topics to be addressed for an effective occupant protection and examples of design criteria for new vehicles.
This book is recommended to academics, engineering students, automotive designers, expert involved in crash test activity and road accident investigation, legislators and to everyone interested in how the vehicle’s safety is assessed and improved.
