Abstract:
SUMMARYThe safety analysis of human–robot collisions has recently drawn significant attention, as robots are increasingly used in human environments. In order to understand the potential injury a robot could cause in case of an impact, such incidents should be evaluated before designing a robot arm based on biomechanical safety criteria. In recent literature, such incidents have been investigated mostly by experimental crash-testing. However, experimental methods are expensive, and the design parameters of the robot arm are difficult to change instantly. In order to solve this issue, we propose a novel robot-human collision model consisting of a 6-degree-of-freedom mass-spring-damper system for impact analysis. Since the proposed robot-human consists of a head, neck, chest, and torso, the relative motion among these body parts can be analyzed. In this study, collision analysis of impacts to the head, neck, and chest at various collision speeds are conducted using the proposed collision model. Then, the degree of injury is estimated by using various biomechanical severity indices. The reliability of the proposed collision model is verified by comparing the obtained simulation results with experimental results from literature. Furthermore, the basic requirements for the design of safer robots are determined.

Abstract:
The probability of frontal collision is the highest in the vehicle collision accidents, and crew injury mechanism of frontal collision is an attractive research subject. Based on the multi-rigid-body dynamics, a “vehicle-crew-belt” dynamics model is introduced, and software Pc-crash is used to simulate dynamic responses of this multi-rigid-body model by referencing basic parameters of FMVSS law. Dynamic response characteristics between the vehicle and the crew body are analyzed so as to expound the link between the vehicle movement and human-body injury. The result shows that a reliable evaluation of frontal collision is achieved, which provides a theory basic and practical reference for the research of accident injury.

Abstract:
The objective of the present study is to investigate the influence of neck muscle activation on whiplash neck injury of the occupants of a passenger vehicle under different severities of frontal and rear-end impact collisions. The finite element (FE) model has been used as a versatile tool to simulate and understand the whiplash injury mechanism for occupant injury prevention. However, whiplash injuries and injury mechanisms have rarely been investigated in connection with neck active muscle forces, which restricts the complete reappearance and understanding of the injury mechanism. In this manuscript, a mixed FE human model in a sitting posture with an active head-neck was developed. The response of the cervical spine under frontal and rear-end collision conditions was then studied using the FE model with and without neck muscle activation. The effect of the neck muscle activation on the whiplash injury was studied based on the results of the FE simulations. The results indicated that the neck active force influenced the head-neck dynamic response and whiplash injury during a collision, especially in a low-speed collision.

Abstract:
The ever-growing demand for transportation and the need to carry both people and goods has led to increased congestions of road traffic networks. Subsequently, the main negative effect is the multiplication of serious road accidents. Of the total number of serious road accidents, a significant increase has been registered among cyclists, with 13.9% in 2014 of total vehicles involved in traffic accidents, compared to 6.6% in 2010. The present paper underpins a close analysis of the kinematic and dynamic parameters in the event of a vehicle - bicycle – cyclist assembly – collision type. To study the vehicle-bicycle-collision type, we carried out a comparative analysis with regard to the distance the cyclist is thrown away following the collision, the speed variation of the vehicle and of the bicycle, and the speed variation in the cyclist’s head area, as well as the variation of the acceleration recorded on the vehicle, the bicycle and the cyclist’s head area. Hence, we modelled and simulated the vehicle – bicycle collision for two distinct instances, i.e. a frontal vehicle – rear bicycle collision and a frontal vehicle - frontal bicycle collision.

AbstractThe article presents the general characteristics of road transport safety in Poland over the years 2009-2019. The key objective of this study was to investigate the main factors of road accidents in Poland. Up till now, the number of road accidents has been analysed in detail on the basis of data on collisions from rear, side and frontal perspective. Moreover, in the article, statistics regarding the number of perpetrators of accidents by gender and age are summarized, as well as dynamics aspects of changes related to new passenger vehicles and trucks in Poland in 2009-2019 are indicated. As a result, the intensity of rear collisions rather than frontal collisions is apparent. Hence, an inconspicuous rear collision by not braking a speeding vehicle carries a risk of the upper cervical spine.

This experiment tests the proposed crash system of the CityCar. The car is to fold during the crash to help decrease the impact force experienced by the passengers. The experiment was conducted by running a simulation of the car crashing into a wall compared to that of a rigid car with no folding, and by building a one-fifth scale wooden model of the CityCar, running it into a wall, and measuring the force upon impact. The simulation was ran at 20 mph, 50 mph, and 80 mph, with weight ratios between the front and back of the car respectively of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 2:1, and 3:1, as well as three variations in the damping of the folding process. Both experiments show that the folding car experienced lower forces than the rigid car. The variations done in the simulation suggest that a back heavy car with considerable damping is best, but these results were a bit inconsistent and unclear and, therefore, will be tested more completely in the future. Results suggest that folding during a crash provides significant help, but this experiment only provides preliminary feedback useful for future analysis of the CityCar.

Abstract:
One of the strategic objectives of the European Commission is to halve the number of road traffic fatalities by 2020. In addition, in 2010, the United Nations General Assembly initiated the "Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020" to reduce the number of fatalities and decrease the number of road traffic injuries. To address the scourge of road traffic accidents, this thesis presents a research study which has devised and evaluated a novel algorithm for extracting the constellation of an unavoidable frontal vehicle-to-vehicle accident. The primary research questions addressed in this work are: • What are the most significant collision parameters which influence the injury severity for a frontal collision between two motor vehicles? • How to extract the constellation of a crash before the accident occurs? In addition, the secondary research questions given below were addressed: • How to integrate physical constraints, imposed on the rate of acceleration of a real vehicle, together with data from vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, into the crash constellation extraction algorithm? • How to integrate uncertainties, associated with the data captured by sensors of a real vehicle, into a simulation model devised for assessing the performance of crash constellation extraction algorithms? Statistical analysis, conducted to determine significant collision parameters, has identified three significant crash constellation parameters: the point of collision on the vehicle body and the relative velocity between the vehicles; and the vehicle alignment offset (or vehicle overlap). The research reported in this thesis has also produced a novel algorithm for analysing the data captured by vehicle sensors, to extract the constellation of an unavoidable vehicle-to-vehicle frontal accident. The algorithm includes a model of physical constraints on the acceleration of a vehicle, cast as a gradual rise and eventual saturation of vehicle acceleration, together with the acceleration lag relative to the timing of information received from V2V communication. In addition, the research has delivered a simulation model to support the evaluation of the performance of crash constellation extraction algorithms, including a technique for integrating (into the simulation model, so that the simulation can approach real-world behaviour) the uncertainties associated with the data captured by the sensors of a real vehicle. The results of the assessment of the soundness of the simulation model show that the model produces the expected level of estimation errors, when simulation data is considered on its own or when it is compared to data from tests performed with a real vehicle. Simulation experiments, for the performance evaluation of the crash constellation extraction algorithm, show that the uncertainty associated with the estimated time-to-collision decreases as vehicle velocity increases or as the actual time-to-collision decreases. The results also show that a decreasing time-to-collision leads to a decreasing uncertainty associated with the estimated position of the tracked vehicle, the estimated collision point on the ego vehicle, and the estimated relative velocity between the two vehicles about to collide. The results of the performance assessment of the crash constellation extraction algorithm also show that V2V information has a beneficial influence on the precision of the constellation extraction, with regards to the predicted time-to-collision, the predicted position and velocity of the oncoming vehicle against which a collision is possible; the predicted relative velocity between the two vehicles about to collide, and the predicted point of collision on the body of the ego vehicle. It is envisaged that the techniques, developed in the research reported in this thesis, will be used in future integrated safety systems for motor vehicles. They could then strongly impact passenger safety by enabling optimal activation of safety measures to protect the vehicle occupants, as determined from the estimated constellation of the impending crash.

Abstract:
Les siwalik representent la partie la plus ancienne (mio-pleistocene) du piemont himalayen. Ils sont constitues par une succession de crets orientes ese - wnw a front tourne vers le sud et separes par des depressions longitudinales (les duns). Tailles dans les molasses mio-pleistocenes, ces reliefs sont apparus consecutivement au jeu de chevauchements imbriques. Au nord, le m. B. T. Est le plus ancien de ces chevauchements, le m. D. T.

Cette structuration progressive des siwalik et du front himalayen con- trole l'apparition successive des reliefs et des duns qui les separent ; elle a ete enregistree par la sedimentation molassique siwalik. Cet ensemble constitue un prisme d'accretion tectonique associe a une collision intracontinentale.

South of the himalayas, the siwalik range, developped in the mio-pleistocene molassic deposits, is composed of ese-wnw trending hogbacks. The geomorphological structural and sedimentological datas show that the orogenic movements are under the strict dependance of the thrusting dynamic : the reliefs are linked to thrusts which appeared successively from north to south : the m. B. T. Appeared first, then the m. D. T. And finally, the m. S. T. . This successive appearence of thrusts and reliefs more and more recent from north to south, can be assimilated to a piggy back thrust sequence. The siwalik area is closely comparable to a tectonic accretionary wedge linked to an intracontinental collision. In this survey, we'll successively analysed the siwalik and post-siwalik sedimentation and the deformation of these materials inside each thrusting set. The stress pattern is analysed and compared with the morphostructural organisation of the siwalik. In conclusion, a geodynamic evolutionary model of this intracontinental tectonic prism has been proposed in this analysis

Abstract:
Frontal motor vehicle collisions (MVCs) resulted in 10,813 fatalities and 937,000 injuries in 2014, which is more than any other type of MVC. In order to mitigate the injuries and fatalities resulting from MVCs, new safety restraint technologies and more biofidelic anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) have been developed. However, the biofidelity of these new ATDs must be evaluated, and the mechanisms of injury must be understood in order to accurately predict injury. Evaluating the biomechanical response, injury mechanisms, and injury threshold of the thorax are particularly important because the thorax is one of the most frequently injured body regions in MVCs. Furthermore, sustaining a severe thoracic injury in an MVC significantly increases mortality risk. The overall objective of this dissertation was to evaluate the biomechanical responses of human surrogates under various frontal loading conditions. This objective was divided into three sub-objectives: 1) to evaluate the biofidelity of the current frontal impact ATDs, 2) to evaluate the effect of different safety restraints on occupant responses, and 3) to evaluate rib material properties with respect to sex, age, structural response, and loading history. In order to meet sub-objectives 1 and 2, full-scale frontal sled tests were performed on three different human surrogates: the 50th percentile male Hybrid III (HIII) ATD, the 50th percentile male Test Device for Human Occupant Restraint (THOR-M) ATD, and approximately 50th percentile male post-mortem human surrogates (PMHS). All surrogates were tested under three safety restraint conditions: knee bolster (KB), KB and steering wheel airbag (KB/SWAB), and knee bolster airbag and SWAB (KBAB/SWAB). The kinematic, lower extremity, abdominal, thoracic, and neck responses were then compared between surrogates and restraint conditions. In order to assess biofidelity, the ATD responses were compared to the PMHS responses. For both the kinematic and thoracic responses, the HIII and THOR-M had comparable biofideltiy. However, the HIII responses were slightly more biofidelic. The ATDs experienced similar lower extremity kinetics, but very different kinetics at the upper and lower neck due to differences in design. Evaluation of the different restraint conditions showed that the SWAB and KBAB both affected injury risk. The SWAB decreased head injury risk for all surrogates, and increased or decreased thoracic injury risk, depending on the surrogate. The KBAB decreased the risk of femur injury, but increased or decreased tibia injury risk depending on the surrogate and injury metric used to predict risk. In order to meet sub-objective 3, the tensile material properties of human rib cortical bone and the structural properties of whole ribs were quantified at strain rates similar to those observed in frontal impacts. The rib cortical bone underwent coupon tension testing, while the whole ribs underwent bending tests intended to simulate loading from a frontal impact. The rib material properties accounted for less than 50% of the variation observed in the whole rib structural properties, indicating that other factors, such as rib geometry, were also influencing the structural response of whole ribs. Age was significantly negatively correlated with the modulus, yield stress, failure strain, failure stress, plastic strain energy density, and total strain energy density. However, sex did not significantly influence any of the material properties. Cortical bone material properties were quantified from the ribs that underwent the whole rib bending tests and subject-matched, untested (control) ribs in order to evaluate the effect of loading history on material properties. Yield stress and yield strain were the only material properties that were significantly different between the previously tested and control ribs. The results of this dissertation can guide ATD and safety restrain design. Additionally, this dissertation provides human surrogate response data and rib material property data for the validation of finite element models, which can then be used to evaluate injury mitigation strategies for MVCs.

Thesis deals with the compatibility of vehicles in a frontal collision. The first section discusses about compatibility from different views. There are the physical processes used in the mechanics of impact. The second part is focused on solving the compatibility of vehicles in a frontal collision by crash analysis using the finite element method. Firstly there are described collisions of vehicles from different vehicle classes (small cars, lower middle class, Pick up / SUV) into the fixed barrier by the US NCAP. Furthermore there are simulated head-on collisions of vehicles from different vehicle classes. In the end there is shown the possibility of using data from crash tests to determine the EES.

Abstract:
Every year, millions of people are killed or injured in motor vehicle accidents in the United States. Although recent improvements to occupant restraint systems, such as seatbelts and airbags, have significantly decreased life threatening injuries, which usually occur to the chest or head, they have done little to decrease the occurrence of lower extremity injuries. Although lower extremity injuries are not usually life threatening, they can result in chronic disability and high psychosocial cost. Of all lower extremity injuries, injuries to the knee-thigh-hip (KTH) region have been shown to be among the most debilitating. This project used a finite element (FE) model of the KTH region to study injury. A parametric investigation was conducted where the FE KTH was simulated as a vehicle occupant positioned to a range of pre-crash driving postures. The results indicate that foot contact force and knee kinematics during impact affects the axial force absorbed by the KTH region and the likelihood of injury. The results of the study could be used to reevaluate the lower extremity injury thresholds currently used to regulate vehicle safety standards. Also, the results could be used to provide guidelines to vehicle manufacturers for developing safer occupant compartments.

Abstract:
By using quasi-geostrophic modons constructed in Chapter 6 as initial conditions, rotating-shallow-water modons are obtained through the process of ageostrophic adjustment, both in one- and in two-layer configurations. Scatter plots show that they are solutions of the rotating shallow-water equations. A special class of modons with an internal front (shock) is shown to exist. A panorama of collision processes of the modons, leading to formation of tripoles, nonlinear modons, or elastic scattering is presented. The modon solutions are then used for initialisations of numerical simulations of decaying rotating shallow-water turbulence. The results are analysed and compared to those obtained with standard in 2D turbulence initializations, and differences are detected, showing non-universality of decaying 2D turbulence. The obtained energy spectra are steeper than theoretical predictions for ‘pure’ 2D turbulence, and pronounced cyclone–anticyclone asymmetry and dynamical separation of waves and vortices are observed.

Abstract:
This chapter explores punk’s intersection with politics in the East and West following its collision with the mass entertainment industry. Examining debates over punk in the Polish Communist Party and the UK Parliament, and efforts to integrate punk into Poland’s Solidarity movement, it shows how politicians struggled to accommodate punk to their worldviews, since punk defied traditional late Cold War sociopolitical categories. Instead, politicians in the First and Second Worlds alike fell back on the model of Matthew Arnold, interpreting culture in terms of “sweetness and light” versus chaos and anarchy—with punk often identified as the latter. While mainstream politicians struggled to fit punk to their worldviews, marginal voices on the Left and Right sought to integrate punk through affiliation with groups such as the Socialist Workers Party (in Rock Against Racism) and the right-wing National Front, ultimately also finding that punk fit poorly with their worldviews.

Abstract:
As Hollywood shifts towards the digital era, the role of the media franchise has become more prominent. Over a series of essays by a range of international scholars, this edited collection argues that the franchise is now an integral element of American media culture. As such, the collection explores the production, distribution, and marketing of franchises as a historical form of media-making. In particular, the essays analyze the complex industrial practice of managing franchises across interconnected online platforms with a global scope, presenting a network of scholarly texts that critically look at the collision of new and old industrial logics against an ever more fragmented and consolidated mediascape. The authors address how traditional incumbents like film studios and television networks have responded to the rise of big data, Silicon Valley companies like Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Google; the ways in which legacy franchises are adapting to new media platforms and technologies; the significant historical continuities and deviations in franchise-making and how they shape the representation of on-screen texts across digital displays; and, finally, how emerging media formats are expanding the possibility for transmedia experiences. In this regard, The Franchise Era: Managing Media in the Digital Economy offers an in-depth analysis of the tectonic shifts that have disrupted entertainment companies in the twenty-first century, demonstrating that the media franchise stands front and center in this high-stakes environment.

Abstract:
The aim of this chapter is to investigate the effect of vehicle dynamics control systems (VDCS) on both the collision of the vehicle body and the kinematic behaviour of the vehicle's occupant in case of offset frontal vehicle-to-vehicle collision. The study also investigates the full-frontal vehicle-to-barrier crash scenario. A unique 6-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) vehicle dynamics/crash mathematical model and a simplified lumped mass occupant model are developed. The first model is used to define the vehicle body crash parameters and it integrates a vehicle dynamics model with a vehicle front-end structure model. The second model aims to predict the effect of VDCS on the kinematics of the occupant. It is shown from the numerical simulations that the vehicle dynamics/crash response and occupant behaviour can be captured and analysed quickly and accurately. Furthermore, it is shown that the VDCS can affect the crash characteristics positively and the occupant behaviour is improved in the full and offset crash scenarios.

Abstract:
Human occupant responses in motor vehicle collisions are commonly predicted and evaluated using computational models and anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs). However, these are validated using post mortem human surrogate (PMHS) studies, which do not include the effects of muscle activation. Studies have shown that tensed muscles can change occupant kinematics and subsequently the kinetics during an automotive collision [1,2,3]. Consequently, the resulting injury patterns can be altered based on muscle activation. Continued development and validation of the aforementioned research tools necessitates further analysis of the effects of muscle activation on an occupant’s biomechanical response in car crashes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of muscle tension on the occupant kinematics and kinetics in low-speed frontal sled tests.
