저속 정면 및 후면 충돌시험을 통한 자동차의 손상성ㆍ수리성 및 안전성

The research committee for automobile repairs (RCAR), an international body of insurance research centers, has adopted the typical low speed crash test based on an average damage level in crash accidents to estimate the damageability and repairability (D&R). The characteristics of body acceleration and the probability of injury are investigated based on damaged components, accelerations of body and injured dummy to analyze damageability and the driver’s safety under low speed crash environment. It is found from the experimental results that the probability of head and thorax injuries are very low comparing to the injury criteria of FMVSS No.208 Furthermore, it is suggested that the deployment of airbag may not be necessary at RCAR low speed frontal crash test.
