报告摘要：
The current design process for vehicle restraint systems relies extensively on crash tests defined in federal standards and New Car Assessment Programs (NCAP). However, such crash tests only cover limited crash conditions and a few sizes (i.e. midsize male and small female) of crash test dummies in normal seating postures. The increased proportion of obese and older populations, the introduction of active safety features, and the advances in self-driving cars all pose significant challenges in the current safety designs, and require significant changes in restraint systems to adapt to the changing occupant demographics, occupant seating postures, and crash conditions. This talk will introduce a few UMTRI studies on parametric human modeling, restraint system optimization in oblique impacts, occupant dynamics in pre-crash maneuvers, and safety concerns in highly automated vehicles, all of which are toward adaptive restraint systems that can provide enhanced occupant protection in a wide range of occupant and crash conditions.
