In an attempt to make vehicle restraint systems more effective in protecting occupants, many advanced safety technologies have been introduced. These advanced technologies are mostly adaptive technologies. The ability of a restraint system to adapt itself to crash parameters like crash speed and type, ...
Rotating hook style restraints have been around the longest, and represent the majority of units installed. Popularity of this restraint design is a result of the level of safety provided, compared to vertical barrier systems, which are common on lower cost models. Among the various operational mo...
Occupant Restraint SystemsKrigingSimulation analysisMultiobjective optimizationOccupant Restraint System (ORS) can effectively protect passengers from severe injury in vehicle collision, thus its design signifies a key issue in automobile engineering. To ensure a high safety rating, e.g. five or at least...
Furthermore, current vehicle restraint systems comprise an airbag which is attached, through a fastening or adhesive means, to an inflator can. In fact, the standard vehicle restraint system itself generally comprises an inflator can retainer, an inflator can, a housing (in the inflator can is ...
Modeling and control of vehicle restraint systems has been investigated in past decades. Many promising results have shown that a seat-belt system can be controlled in real-time to minimize human driver/occupant's injuries by reducing the human chest acceleration after a frontal impact. This paper...
