Opis:
There are more and more motorcycles on the roads. This can be seen, for example, on the basis of statistical data from the Central Statistical Office, where newly registered two-wheelers are presented. Based on the data, it can be seen that there are more and more newly registered motorcycles every year and that there are many road accidents involving two-wheelers. According to data provided by the WHO, as many as 28% of fatalities in road accidents are motorcycle drivers [10]. The article below presents a review of the literature related to motorcycle crash tests and the dummies used for the tests. The work presents the most important standard that regulates how motorcycle crash tests are performed. The main purpose of the article is to draw attention to the problem of safety of motorcycle users. The text describes various crash tests of two-wheelers and stands used for testing motorcycles. The work presents a dummy specially designed for crash tests involving motorcycles. Differences between this dummy and other dummies used have also been described. The paper discusses the literature and describes research related to crash tests.

Opis:
Applying the pretensioners and the belt force limiters in cars had a positive impact on the seat belts effectiveness in protecting the people driving against the effects of collisions. In this way, delayed action of the seat belts, resulting from the flexibility of the belt and the operating time of the retractor locking mechanism, was partially eliminated. The tasks and properties of the pretensioners and force limiters used in cars will be described in the paper. Implementations of the forces acting at the driver's lap belts and shoulder belts during a frontal collision into a rigid barrier, at the speed of 56km/h, will be presented. On this basis the properties of the pretensioners and belt force limiters will be determined. The characteristics of rigidity (force - displacement) of the shoulder belts of various designs will be presented, too. On the basis of the results of the crash tests (NHTSA, USA) for several cars the dynamic loads, which act on the driver during a frontal collision into a rigid barrier, will be analysed. The biomechanical indices of the human immune to the effects of shock loads will be taken into account. The analysis will include the passenger cars (sedan) from the years 1995 – 2004, which were fitted with the seat belts of various designs.

Opis:
The work considers changes occurred in the features of the supporting structure in three categories of cars, namely: with the self-supporting body, framed body an intermediate structures between these two solutions. The area of analysis includes the length of deformation (crush) of the front al part of the car after collision with a rigid obstacle (barrier). The range of deformation is a significant factor of the passive car safety and indicates the efficiency of fulfilling the protective function for the passengers. The work shows absolute and relative (percentage and unit) variations of the car deformation, depending on the year of manufacture, including the period of 1980 - 2010. Marked trend lines indicated general nature of the deformation range variations together with the improvement of the car supporting system structures. The course of the trend line has been calculated on the basis of average deformation length values, calculated in defined periods of vehicle manufacture. Selected sections of time result from the division of the period of analysis 1980 - 2010 into six parts. The analysis of the deformation length of the frontal part of passenger cars, SUVs and pickups has been combined with simultaneous evaluation of total car length variations and their weight values. The car weight directly affects the kinetic energy of the impact so it has a significant influence on the range of deformation of the car front during collision with an obstacle.

Opis:
Road accidents with participation of the children are of particular nature. According to surveys, the older children at the age of 8-12 years are often transported in cars in a wrong way. They are usually fastened with seat belts designed for adult passengers. In order to make the seat belts safe for a child, they should be used together with a booster cushion or a high back booster seat. This paper presents the test results and analysis of dynamic loads affecting a child in the back seat of a passenger car during a frontal collision. The car body was accelerated to a speed of about 48 km/h and then it was suddenly stopped in a time of about 100 ms. The analysis was carried out on the basis of results of experimental tests performed at the collision station in the Automotive Industry Institute in Warsaw. The attention was paid to the influence of protection device type on the P10 dummy, representing a child at the age of about 10 years. Three child protection options during a collision were considered: the dummy was sitting directly in a car seat, on a booster cushion and on a seat. The dummy was fastened with standard seat belts. Evaluation of the protection device influence on the dummy loads was given in association with the operation of the seat belts. During evaluation, the indexes of biomechanical resistance of a human body to the impact load effects were used. They made the basis for the evaluation of the child injury severity risk.

Opis:
Human body motion during a road accident usually results from the effect of forces of inertia. The analysis of that motion, particularly displacements towards the vehicle interior have significant practical aspect as it facilitates conclusions concerning the mechanisms of danger and injury formation. At the same time, the analysis provides direct indications regarding the improvement of passive safety equipment. The paper presents the time-space diagrams of motion of dummy’s head, neck, torso and hips – the driver of a frame chassis vehicle, identified on the basis of results of the measurements registered in frontal barrier impact and the frame-by-frame analysis of videos recorded during the course of experiment. Courses of these diagrams were associated with acceleration measurement results and forces affecting the parts of the dummy. The experiment showed the complex nature of the influence on the dummy caused by the forces of inertia after a collision of the vehicle with an barrier, vehicle body motion against the frame, reactions in the safety belts, friction on a seat and contact reaction of the vehicle interior equipment. At the same time, it presented the possibilities of indicating the courses of speed variations and dummy displacement as well as significant limitations of calculation possibilities that result from a fact that the process of the impact on the vehicle interior elements is hard to describe.

Opis:
The analysis carried out by the authors indicates high threat to the rear seat passengers in passenger cars during a road accident. Vehicle designers indicate potential threats for passengers when they take a position in a car which is unexpected by a manufacturer of passive protection systems. Based on that, the tests were prepared in order to consider several different positions of a rear seat passenger. In particular, attention was paid to a threat to passengers when they take a position unexpected by a manufacturer of the passive protection systems in a car. Indicating and justifying a need to adjust the operation of the individual protection means to a passenger anatomy and current passenger position in a car in order to optimize his protection makes an important aim of these tests. This paper presents the results of the tests performed with a Hybrid III dummy, size M50, placed in three different positions in the back seat of a car. During each test, a series of physical values were measured and the motion of a dummy against the car body and the car interior components were filmed. The effects resulting from a change of a passenger’s position, observed on the courses of dynamic loads occurring during an accident, were analysed. Despite of small changes to a passenger’s position, their significant influence on the dummy movement during a frontal collision of a car and an obstacle was observed.

Opis:
The dynamic loads acting on a human body during a road accident may cause bodily injuries. They are dependent not only on the car structure and applied means of individual protection but also on the anthropometric features of a human body and its location in car. The safety of the car occupants on the rear seats in the passenger cars has been treated as a secondary issue so far. The achieved stage of the structure of that equipment for the rear seat occupants makes an important confirmation of that state. Usually there is no adjustment of the seat belt fixing point position, seat belt pretensioners, seat adjustment. This paper considers the risk of injury for the front and rear seat passengers of the passenger cars on the basis of analysis of dynamic loads that can affect them during the road accident. The attention was paid to the adults and children aged about 10 years. The dynamic loads were analysed with making use of experimental results of frontal flat barrier impact. During the tests, the passengers are protected by typical passive safety systems on the front and the rear seats. In the evaluation used the criteria of the biomechanical human body resistance to the impact load effect. The attention is paid to relations between a seat occupied in a car and the probability of injuries. The analysis of the laboratory impact tests was preceded by the assessment of risk of injury of the front and rear seat passengers in the real road accidents, which has been prepared based on the literature data.

Opis:
High accident index in Poland, including one of the highest death rates in EU, forces undertaking the intense works in order to improve traffic safety. Published road accident statistics indicate that the most dangerous accidents include a vehicle collision with a tree, post or other road object. The road safety barriers make the road infrastructure elements that can signiflcantly protect against that type of accidents. The work presents basie tasks and requirements imposed on the barriers. Problems related to a proper selection of the barriers have been also highlighted. The tools facilitating the barrier design include numerical modelling. The modelling has been done by means of the LS-DYNA software, using the finite element method. A general structure and a developed barrier model as well as vehicle model have been presented. The conditions of the numerical tests have been also specifled. The work presents the results of influence of car impact angle with a rigid safety barrier. Presented results refer to a car o f mas s of 900 kg, making a bas is for the tests of the limiting systems for several limiting levels: including normal limit N2 (according to EN 1317-2). Compared to standard requirements, the scope of numerical tests has been extended by other car impact angle values. The work presents vehicle trajectories and deformations of their bodies. It also includes examples of velocities and acceleration courses and acceleration severity indexes (ASI) calculated on their basis. Obtained results indicate that the barrier location angle has a high influence on the safety level ofthe car passengers as well as on the car motion trajectory after collision

The work presents the traffic safety issue related to a use of the road protective barriers. It describes a purpose and tasks that should be fulfilled by the safety system. Conditions of crash tests and their evaluation according to the requirements of the existing standard documents are also presented. The purpose of the work was to evaluate the influence of applied barrier type on the car collision process. A barrier composed of the segments that can move on the ground due to the impact force and a barrier fixed to the road surface were assumed for the model tests. The modelling was carried out by means of the LS-DYNA sofrware, using the finite element method. The tests were performed for two types of cars, mass of 900 kg and 1500 kg. The work includes the numerical test results, deformations of car bodies and barrier displacement. Examples of velocities and acceleration courses of selected vehicle elements and the ASI index, calculated on their basis, used for evaluation of the passenger danger level were also presented. Obtained results indicate a significant influence of the barrier installation method (joint with the road) on the collision process course and dynamic loads affecting the car passengers. They also indicate directions of safety improvement.

Opis:
The paper evaluates the effectiveness of the innovative road safety system equipped with prototype component segments composed of a body made of a plastic filled with reinforced concrete. Main advantages of the new safety barrier include increased resistance to corrosion as well as easy transport and assembly directly on a road section being secured. Model tests were performed on a car of 900 kg weight allowing for carrying out the TB11 tests according to the EN 1317-2 standard. LS-DYNA software was applied for modelling, using the finite element method. The work presents the numerical test results, trajectory of vehicle movement after collision as well as the concrete barrier displacement. It also includes examples of stress in steel bars and joint coupling. Detailed assessing of simulation test results were made on the basis of ASI, THIV and PHD index. They were calculated on the basis of velocity and acceleration courses of selected car bodywork points. Numerical test results confirm the fact that this system meets the normative requirements. They allow for qualifying that system for B impact severity level and W4 working width. The results presented in the paper make the initial stage of the study and further calculations will be oriented towards a possibility of meeting the requirements for higher restraint levels.

Opis:
Experimental tests have been prepared and carried out in order to deepen the analysis of the influence of a position of a rear seat passenger in a passenger car on a risk of injuries during a road accident. This risk is considered and calculated in the aspect of a car passenger position that slightly deviates from the one planned by manufacturers of individual protection devices. Attention was focused on the analysis of measurable effects of the position modification in the area of torso and head movement and neck deformation. The experimental tests included a physical simulation of a frontal collision of a car and a rigid obstacle. They showed that relatively small changes to the initial dummy position could be a reason of significant differences in the movement trajectory and dummy position at the final stage of the crash test. These differences are described in details. The analysis also included the criteria index values that refer to the head, neck and chest injuries. Index calculation results confirm the influence of a small change to the leg and torso position on the index values, thus on the probability of injuries of the rear seat passengers in a passenger car.
Przygotowano i przeprowadzono badania eksperymentalne, które mają na celu pogłębienie analizy wpływu pozycji osoby siedzącej na tylnym siedzeniu w samochodzie osobowym na ryzyko jej obrażeń w czasie wypadku drogowego. Ryzyko to jest rozważane i obliczone w aspekcie zajmowania przez człowieka w samochodzie pozycji nieznacznie odbiegającej od zaplanowanej przez producentów urządzeń ochrony indywidualnej. Uwagę skupiono na analizie wymiernych skutków zmiany tej pozycji w obszarze ruchu torsu i głowy oraz odkształcenia szyi. Badania eksperymentalne były symulacją fizyczną czołowego uderzenia samochodu w sztywną przeszkodę. Pokazały one, że stosunkowo niewielkie różnice w początkowej pozycji manekina mogą być przyczyną znacznych różnic w trajektorii ruchu oraz położeniu manekina w kulminacyjnej fazie testu zderzeniowego. Różnice te zostały szczegółowo opisane. Analizie poddano także wartości wskaźników kryterialnych, które dotyczą powstawania obrażeń głowy, szyi i klatki piersiowej. Wyniki obliczeń wskaźników potwierdzają wpływ już niewielkiej zmiany położenia nóg i torsu na ich wartości, a zatem na prawdopodobieństwo powstawania obrażeń u osób jadących na tylnych siedzeniach samochodu osobowego.

Opis:
The paper presents problems related to road safety in terms of the development of the concrete barriers system, dispersing energy of car collision on the roads with high traffic and high accident risk. Particular attention was paid to barriers' basic parameters - weight and length of the segment. The main objective of the numeric researches was to assess the qualitative and quantitative effects of the car collision with a concrete road barrier in accordance with the standard EN 1317. To the model tests a 900 kg passenger car has been used which allowed to perform TB11 test according to EN 1317-2 standard (initial velocity - 100 km/h). Numerical studies were carried out for concrete segments lengths: 2, 4, 6, 8 m for two selected impact points. Detailed comparisons of simulation test results obtained for individual variants were made on the basis of the acceleration courses of selected car bodywork points, calculated indicators, the trajectory of vehicle movement after collision as well as on the basis of the behaviour of the concrete barriers.
Niniejsza praca stanowi rozwinięcie problematyki bezpieczeństwo ruchu drogowego w aspekcie opracowania systemu betonowych barier ochronnych, rozpraszających energią zderzenia samochodu na drogach o dużym natężeniu ruchu i wysokim zagrożeniu wypadkowym, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem jej podstawowych parametrów konstrukcyjnych (masy i długości segmentu). Głównym celem przeprowadzonych badań numerycznych było dokonanie oceny jakościowej i ilościowej skutków zderzenia samochodu z betonową barierą drogową zgodnie z obowiązującą normą EN 1317. Obliczenia przeprowa-dzono w systemie LS - DYNA wykorzystującego metodę elementów skończonych. Pojazd badany o masie 900 kg poruszał się z prędkością początkową 100 km/h, a następnie uderzał w system barier. Badania numeryczne zrealizowano dla segmentów betonowych o długościach: 2, 4, 6, 8 m, dla dwóch wybranych punktów zderzenia. Szczegółowych porównań wyników badań symulacyjnych, otrzymanych dla poszczególnych wariantów obliczeniowych, dokonano na podstawie przebiegów czasowych przyspieszeń wybranych punktów nadwozia samochodu, obliczonych na ich podstawie wskaźników, trajektorii ruchu pojazdu po zderzeniu, a także na podstawie zachowania się betonowej bariery ochronnej.

Opis:
The work presents the results of crash tests carried out with six electrical car models (from 2012-2013), with the weight of 1200-2300 kg (Smart Electric Driver, Mitsubishi IMiEV, Nissan Leaf, CODA, Ford Focus BEV, Tesla Model S). The results were published on the Internet by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (USA), and the tests involved a car travelling at the speed of 56 km/h, hitting frontally into a non-deformable (stiff) barrier, positioned perpendicularly to the car’s direction of movement. Particular attention was paid to the deformation of the car after hitting the barrier, so-called stiffness characteristics of the frontal crumple zone, and to the loads on the dummies placed at the driver’s and passenger’s seat (Hybrid III, a 50-centile man and a 5-centile woman). Results of the tests with electric cars were compared with the results of the tests with over a hundred of combustion engine cars with similar weight and type of car body (sedan, hatchback). The tests proved that, in the majority of electrical cars tested, the deformation of the frontal crumple zone after hitting an obstacle is larger than in case of similar cars with internal combustion engine. Because of that, the dynamic loads on the occupants of the vehicle tend to be smaller, as indicated by measured loads on the heads and chests of the dummies. The results may suggest that the frontal crumple zone may be better constructed in the case of electric cars, while the design possibilities regarding that area are limited in standard cars due to the combustion engine, which is not deformed during the accident, which makes it more difficult for the energy of the crash to dissipate.

Opis:
The article presents results of experimental investigation of the dynamic loads that act on a child carried in a safety seat fixed on the rear seat of a passenger car during a frontal impact of the car against an obstacle. The analysis was done with using the test results published on the Internet by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), covering 12 crash tests where the test car moving with a speed of about 56 km/h frontally hit a rigid flat barrier. The attention was focused on the loads on test dummies representing children aged 3 and 10 years. For all the cars tested, the risk of serious injury (AIS 3) for the child aged 3 years was higher by 5-27 % than that for the ten-year-old one in the test conditions under consideration. It has been found that for the younger child, the greatest danger may arise when the child’s head hits its back on the seat backrest in the final phase of the vehicle collision; in contrast, the older child is chiefly exposed to excessive thoracic deflection. The assessment of loads on the test dummies was preceded by an analysis of data collected from the road accidents that occurred in Poland and in the European Union. It has been ascertained that the risk of child’s death in a road accident in Poland is comparable for both the age groups under analysis (0-6 years and 7-14 years). However, it is alarming that the value of the rate of hazard to children in Poland is almost twice as high as the EU average.
Przedstawiono wyniki badań obciążeń dynamicznych, jakie działają na dzieci przewożone w fotelikach na tylnym siedzeniu samochodu osobowego, podczas jego czołowego uderzenia w przeszkodę. Wykorzystano wyniki badań udostępnione w Internecie przez National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (USA), obejmujące 12 testów zderzeniowych, w których samochód jadący z prędkością około 56 km/h uderzał czołowo w sztywną, płaską barierę. Uwagę skupiono na obciążeniach manekinów, reprezentujących dzieci w wieku 3 i 10 lat. W większości samochodów, w rozważanych warunkach badań, ryzyko poważnych obrażeń (AIS3) dziecka 3-letniego było większe o (5 ÷ 27)% niż dziecka 10-letniego. Ustalono, że zagrożeniem dla młodszego dziecka może być uderzenie tyłem głowy o oparcie fotelika, w końcowej fazie zderzenia. Natomiast starsze dziecko jest narażone na nadmierne ugięcie klatki piersiowej. Ocenę obciążeń manekinów poprzedzono analizą danych z wypadków drogowych w Polsce i UE. Ustalono, że ryzyko śmierci dziecka podczas wypadku drogowego w Polsce jest porównywalne w obu analizowanych grupach wiekowych (0 – 6 lat oraz 7 – 14 lat). Niepokojące jest to, że wartość wskaźnika zagrożenia dzieci w Polsce jest prawie 2 razy większa niż średnia w Unii Europejskiej.
