All over the world at present, injuries and fatalities from road accidents are a significant problem, especially occurred to pedestrians from passenger cars. Most of the fatal accidents between car and pedestrians prove deadly because of the head to hood impact. This paper aims to develop a bumper to avoid from passenger car’s fatal head impact for pedestrian protection, and most importantly, the impact of different objects with passenger car bumper needs to be recognized. Firstly, a pendulum system is constructed to perform the fundamental research which is concentrated on the response pattern of impact-object simulation tests, and we confirmed the application possibility for the method of discriminable pattern recognition whether impact-object is human-like or not by means of neural networks using smart PZT materials. Finally, the impact characteristics analyses can provide enough pattern recognition indices which can be developed and then used to recognize the impact information by two different neural networks.

This paper aimed to research the relationship between the wrap around distance (WAD) to head contact and vehicle impact speed based on real pedestrian traffic accidents with video. A team was established to collect passenger car-pedestrian accident cases occurring between July 2011 and July 2015 in Chongqing, China. A total of 15 pedestrian crashes were selected into the sample. Impact speeds were calculated by a video analysis technology, and the WAD was revised according to the average height of pedestrians involved in the sample. The relationship between the WAD and impact speed was analyzed using linear regression analysis. We propose a method to evaluate the impact speed in passenger car-pedestrian. These results will contribute to the development of judicial identification and research of pedestrian injury.

Vehicle-pedestrian collision is a major type traffic accident in China, which has been attracted close attention by people because of its high fatality rate. However, it is difficult for traffic management department to reconstruct such kind of accident. In this paper, a methodology for simulation of vehicle-pedestrian accidents based on the multi-body dynamics is presented. A multi-body dummy pedestrian model is established based on PC-CRASH programs, the features that represent the different parts of the pedestrian are defined such as geometry, mass, contact stiffness and coefficients of friction. And more the model is introduced to simulate the collision in a real case of vehicle-pedestrian accident in Hangzhou. Different impact speeds are discussed to predict the different throwing distance of the pedestrian. The relation curves and equations between pedestrian’s throwing distance and vehicle impact speed are established from regression analyses of the simulation data. Finally, the impact speed is estimated with correspond to the exact pedestrian throwing distance.
