This study developed a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of an integrated pedestrian protection system (IPPS) based on simulations. The proposed IPPS consists of active and passive vehicular systems for protecting pedestrians, including a pedestrian warning information system (PWIS), an active hood lift system (AHLS), and pedestrian airbag system (PAS). Two simulation methods were applied in the proposed methodology: a driving simulation and a finite element simulation. A driving simulator was used to obtain the change in collision speed, which is a key parameter for evaluating driving behavior when a PWIS is applied. In addition, a well-known simulator for finite element analysis, LSDYNA was used to simulate the impact of a pedestrian on a vehicle hood in a pedestrian-vehicle collision. The head injury criterion (HIC), which is an outcome of LS-DYNA simulations, is a major parameter for evaluating passive safety systems. The probability of pedestrian fatalities by collision speeds and HICs were estimated to quantify the safety benefits of an IPPS based on the statistical analyses. The results showed that an IPPS is capable of reducing pedestrian fatalities by approximately 90 % associated with jaywalking in the midblock and walking on the roadside. The findings of this study can be used to boost the development of various vehicular technologies for pedestrians. The results can be effectively used for policy making and deriving legislative requirements associated with advanced vehicular technologies for enhancing pedestrian safety. 相似文献

Normally, the design slamming pressure on the bottomof a semi-submersible-type floating rig is determined in a simple way using the relative speed obtained from an air-gap analysis. However, few studies have taken a thorough, robust, and deep-background approach to the estimation of design pressure. To investigate the slamming pressure on the bottom of a semi-submersible rig, a simplified deformable stiffened plate of a zero-degree deadrise angle is simulated using the nonlinear FEM software LS-DYNA, which can take the influence of fluid–structure interaction (FSI) into account. Various parametric studies are carried out to examine the effects of structural flexibility, coupling stiffness, mesh size, velocity, stiffener size, and air cushion. The pressure response on the plate by the coupling of fluid and structure is studied and the FSI effect of each parameter is discussed. Then, equivalent transient and static loads that result in the same maximum or permanent deformation as FSI are evaluated for design purposes through a series of parametric studies. 相似文献

At the idle engine speed, the exhaust discharge noise is influenced by resonances in the whole system, which is composed of
connecting pipes and silencers. This pipe resonance radiates a high level of low frequency discharge noise, which is dominated
by the low order harmonics of the engine firing frequency. This low frequency noise deteriorates the vehicle’s interior noise
level and quality. The following study attempted to optimize the layout of an exhaust system to minimize low frequency noise
by changing the position of silencers and the lengths of inlet and outlet pipes in each silencer. After modeling the exhaust
system using four-pole parameters, the acoustical performance of the system was evaluated using the system insertion loss.
In the optimization, the virtual attenuation coefficient, which corresponds to the amount of attenuation coefficient required
for the silencers, was calculated to find a minimum value for the layout. The simulated annealing method, which is also known
as finding an optimal, was employed in searching for the optimized exhaust layout. Test examples of two cases, for two and
six design variables, were used. When the number of design variables was two, the positions of the center and rear silencers
were considered. When the number of design variables was six, the positions of the two silencers and the lengths of the inlet
and outlet pipes were considered. Three typical layouts for the exhaust system of each case were designed, including the given
system and an optimal system. By comparing the predicted and measured discharge noise level, it was confirmed that the optimized
exhaust layout has a higher noise reduction than the other layout designs. 相似文献
