TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Evaluation and discussion of design techniques that focuses on the seat-frame stiffness of passenger car seat for neck injury reduction JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Makita, Masashi A1 - Sugimoto, Yosuke A1 - Pal, Chinmoy SP - 1157 EP - 1162 VL - 46 IS - 6 N2 - In this paper, it is investigated by focusing to stiffness balance of seat-frame as one of the measures to reduce neck injury. The balance of the seat-frame stiffness, it is thought that to reduce the motion difference between the head and torso causing neck injury. First, we will describe an idea of balance the seat-frame stiffness to reduce neck injury. Next, the experiments for carrying out the verification of the energy absorption that is considered essential to the balance of the seat-frame stiffness. Finally, we will discuss the control of motion difference between the head and torso in the experimental results and the seat frame stiffness.
