The aim of the paper was to determine the kinematic parameters that influence the occupant injury risk through a mathematical model. The developed model is a 2D model composed of 4 bodies (2 vehicles, thorax and head). The head and thorax are interconnected with a rotation joint and a torsion spring meant to stiffen the relative movement between the bodies. The thorax is connected with the vehicle body by a linear spring meant to simulate the seatbelt stiffness. The model was solved using Lagrange principle and the validation of the model was made through a crash test performed using the same initial conditions and comparing the obtained values of the displacement, velocity and acceleration parameters with the ones obtained with the mathematical model. The head and torso were chosen due to the fact that they are the common parts of the body that get injured, especially the head with the change of 80 % to cause fatal injury in car’s frontal collision. Once the model was validated, the stiffness of the seatbelt was modified in order to determine the behavior of the occupant in case of car frontal collisions. When the seatbelt stiffness was reduced, the occupant displacement and velocity increased, while by increasing the stiffness, these parameters decreased. The values of the developed model presented a high degree of similarity with the results obtained from the crash test with an error of 10 %. This model can be used by engineers to easily asses the occupant injury risk in case of vehicle frontal collisions. 相似文献

The effect of uniform current on the generation of flexural gravity waves resulting from initial disturbances at a point was
analyzed in two dimensions. The problem was formulated as an initial boundary value problem under the assumptions of the linearized
theory of water waves. By direct application of the Laplace transform and then the Fourier transform, explicit expressions
for the velocity potential and free surface elevation were obtained in integral forms; these were evaluated asymptotically
for large distances and times by the application of the method of the stationary phase to obtain the far field behavior of
the surface elevations in specific cases. Simple numerical computations were performed to illustrate the effect of uniform
current on the surface elevation, wavelength, phase velocity, and group velocity of the flexural gravity waves and on the
far field behavior of the progressive waves in two different cases, namely, when there is an initial depression concentrated
at the origin and an initial impulse concentrated at the origin. 相似文献

In the light of the newly developed harmonised probabilistic damage stability regulations, set to come into force in 2009,
this article presents a systematic and thorough analysis of the sensitivity of the Attained Subdivision Index with reference
to a wide range of related design parameters. The sensitivity of the probabilistic regulations was investigated for a typical
large RoPax vessel, with variation of parameters, such as the number, positioning and local optimisation of transverse bulkheads;
the presence and position of longitudinal bulkheads below the main vehicle deck; the presence of side casings; and the height
of the main deck and double bottom. The effects of water on deck and of operational parameters (draught, centre of gravity
and trim) were also investigated. The results of the study, presented in graphical form, can provide valuable assistance to
the designer when determining subdivision characteristics at the very early stage of the design process, resulting in optimal,
efficient and safe ships. 相似文献

An acoustic vector sensor (AVS) can capture more information than a conventional acoustic pressure sensor (APS). As a result, more output channels are required when multiple AVS are formed into arrays, making processing the data stream computationally intense. This paper proposes a new algorithm based on the propagator method for wideband coherent sources that eliminates eigen-decomposition in order to reduce the computational burden. Data from simulations and lake trials showed that the new algorithm is valid: it resolves coherent sources, breaks left/right ambiguity, and allows inter element spacing to exceed a half-wavelength. 相似文献

To evaluate the clinical outcome, effectiveness and safety of the surgical management of traumatic lumbar spondylolisthesis
with transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) with short segmental instrumentation fixation. A retrospective review of
a consecutive series of 24 patients with traumatic lumbar spondylolisthesis treated with TLIF procedure was carried out. Intraoperative
spinal cord monitoring was used to confirm the peripheral neural function intact during the reduction of the spondylolisthesis.
Preoperative clinical and radiographic evaluation of all cases were originally collected prospectively. Data regarding blood
loss, operative time, duration of hospital stay, radiographic fusion, instrumentation failure and clinical result were collected
and observed at regular follow-up periods. All patients were engaged in high-energy accidents in the lower back and 16 patients
had concomitant injuries. The mean operative time was 124 min, mean blood loss was 350 mL, and mean hospital stay was 6.5
days. There were no complications such as incision infection, cerebrospinal fluide (CSF) leakage and nerve root injury and
so on. All patients demonstrated a solid lumbar interbody fusion within 4 months, and no evidence of spondylolisthesis correction
loss, instrumentation failure and loosing. They all were completely asymptomatic, with normal neurologic findings, and had
resumed their previous level of physical activities on the final follow-up. Meticulous clinical examination and careful imaging
assessment could assist an early diagonosis in cases of traumatic lumbar spondylolisthesis. Performing open reduction and
the TLIF procedure as soon as possible could restore segmental stability and painless function. The TLIF procedure was a safe,
effective technique to treat traumatic lumbar spondylolisthesis. 相似文献

Dimension reduction and manifold learning are the two most popular feature extraction methods. The two methods focus on spatial
locality as a guiding principle to find a low-dimensional basis for describing high-dimensional data, but no bases or features
are more spatially localized than the original image pixels. So, adaptive image combination is presented to represent a class
by a combined sample. The combined sample is a linear combination of original samples in the same class. Adaptive image combination
(AIC) find the best combination coefficients by minimizing the intrapersonal distance and maximizing the interpersonal distance.
Experimental results show that AIC is effective. 相似文献

This paper establishes a link between an activity-based model for the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), dynamic traffic assignment,
emission modelling, and air quality simulation. This provides agent-based output that allows vehicle emissions to be tracked
back to individuals and households who are producing them. In addition, roadway emissions are dispersed and the resulting
ambient air concentrations are linked with individual time-activity patterns in order to assess population exposure to air
pollution. This framework is applied to evaluate the effects of a range of policy interventions and 2031 scenarios on the
generation of vehicle emissions and greenhouse gases in the GTA. Results show that the predicted increase of approximately
2.6 million people and 1.3 million jobs in the region by 2031 compared to 2001 levels poses a major challenge in achieving
meaningful reductions in GHGs and air pollution. 相似文献

In an attempt to reduce CO2 emissions from motorized transport, the Taiwanese government introduced an idling stop policy for vehicles in early 2007.
This paper seeks to quantify the environmental benefits of the policy based on a stated preference analysis. Motorcyclists
were surveyed at urban intersections in Taiwan, to identify the amount of time they would be willing to turn off their engines
while waiting at traffic lights (the WTO). A contingent valuation framework based on stated preference questions was designed
to determine the WTO. Results obtained from the Spike model showed that the average motorcyclist’s WTO is 82 s. In another
analysis, in which other variables were taken into consideration, such as the possibility that the policy will be enacted
as legislation, the expected WTO increased to 101 s. In both cases, an idling stop policy would have positive environmental
effects, reducing gasoline usage by 1021 L per hour and reducing CO2 emissions by 0.56 metric tons per hour at the intersection studied during peak periods. 相似文献

This paper seeks to improve our understanding of passengers’ behavioral intention by proposing an integrated framework from
the attitudinal perspective. According to the literature in marketing research, we establish a causal relationship model that
considers “service quality-satisfaction-behavioral intentions” paradigm, perceived value theory, and switching barrier theory.
Exploring passengers’ behavioral intention from satisfaction and perceived value help to understand how passengers are attracted
by the company, while switching barriers assist in realizing how passengers are “locked” into a relationship with the current
company. Furthermore, in order to capture the nature of service quality, we adopt a hierarchical factor structure which serves
service quality as the higher-order factor. In this study, coach industry is selected as our research subject. The empirical
results, as hypothesized, show that all causal relationships are statistically significant, and perceived value us the most
important predictor of satisfaction and passengers’ behavioral intention. In conclusion, the managerial implications and suggestions
for future research are discussed. 相似文献

Statistical and dynamical analyses of propagation mechanisms of solitary internal waves in a two-layer stratification 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The blocking effect of submarine ridges on the propagation of internal solitary waves (ISWs) over the topography of the seabed
results in the fission of the solitary waves that accompany the generation of reflected and transmitted waves. In this study,
multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is used to investigate the inseparable relationship between the transmission and
reflection. An examination of the error sums of squares and cross-products (SSCP) matrix and the correction matrix shows that
the correlation between the transmission (at/ai) and reflection coefficients (ar/ai) is quite low (0.284). Moreover, from
multivariate testing, including Pillai’s trace, Wilks’ lambda, Hotelling’s trace and Roy’s largest root, we conclude that
the ridge height has a large effect (η = 0.456) on both the amplitude of the transmitted and reflected waves, as well as large (η = 0.411) and very large (η = 0.469) effects on the amplitudes of the transmitted and reflected waves, respectively. In conclusion, the results in the
present study highlight the importance of the role played by ridge height in coherent ISW transmission and reflection during
oceanic wave–ridge interactions. 相似文献
