Abstract

In the past research, a pedestrian pelvis injury index was examined using a human FE model and simplified vehicle models representing various shapes and stiffness characteristics of vehicles. In this research, an enhanced pelvis injury index was developed by using an improved version of the pelvis model, and further investigating the shapes and stiffness characteristics of the simplified vehicle models to better represent pedestrian loading from actual vehicles.
