AbstractThis research study examined the factors contributing to the injury severity of alcohol-impaired motorcyclists (BAC ≥ 0.08), compared to non-alcohol-impaired motorcyclists (BAC < 0.08). This study modelled rider injury severity in single-motorcycle crashes using random parameter multinomial logit with heterogeneity in mean and variance. This approach accounts for possible unobserved heterogeneity in the data resulting from rider, roadway, motorcycle, traffic and/or environmental conditions. The model results show that rider characteristics, such as role (rider), demographics (age between 50 and 65 years), motorcycle type (cruiser), rider endorsement (endorsement required), riding behaviour (speed more than 10 mph over the speed limit), riding action (no distraction prior to crashes), no helmet usage, roadway characteristics (left curved alignment, road surface condition), temporal characteristics (Sundays), spatial characteristics (Florida Department of Transportation District 5) and crash characteristics (collision with roadside fixed object) interact in a complex way to affect riders’ injury severity. The estimated model results suggest that the likelihood of fatality was 3.1 times higher for harmful events of roadside fixed objects, 6.6 times higher for left-aligned roadway and 10.4 times higher for riders in single-motorcycle crashes involving alcohol-impairment (BAC ≥ 0.08) relative to non-alcohol impairment (BAC < 0.08). The results clearly indicate the elevated safety concerns of alcohol impairment beyond the legal limit (BAC ≥ 0.08) has on rider injury severities. Alcohol-impaired riding and its impact on risky riding behaviours needs to be prioritised and addressed through education, enforcement and engineering countermeasures.Keywords: Single-motorcycle crashesinjury severityblood alcohol content (BAC)unobserved heterogeneityalcohol impairment Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Alcohol Test Type is variable, which is coded as ‘Test Not Given’, ‘Test Refused’, and ‘Unknown, if Tested’ according to Crash Analysis Reporting (CAR) system.

摘要本研究探讨了酒精损伤摩托车手(BAC≥0.08)与非酒精损伤摩托车手(BAC < 0.08)损伤严重程度的影响因素。本研究采用随机参数多项对数模型对单摩托车碰撞中骑手的伤害严重程度进行建模,其均值和方差均具有异质性。这种方法可以解释由于骑手、道路、摩托车、交通和/或环境条件导致的数据中可能存在的未观察到的异质性。模型结果显示骑手特征,如角色(骑手)、人口统计数据(年龄在50至65岁之间)、摩托车类型(巡巡车)、骑手背书(需要背书)、骑行行为(时速超过限速10英里)、骑行动作(撞车前没有分心)、不使用头盔、道路特征(左弯路线、路面状况)、时间特征(周日)、空间特征(Florida Department of Transportation District 5)和碰撞特征(与路边固定物体碰撞)以复杂的方式相互作用,影响骑手的伤害程度。估计的模型结果表明,与非酒精损伤(BAC < 0.08)相比,涉及酒精损伤(BAC≥0.08)的单摩托车事故中,路边固定物体的有害事件的死亡可能性高3.1倍,左行道路的死亡可能性高6.6倍,而涉及酒精损伤(BAC < 0.08)的骑手的死亡可能性高10.4倍。结果清楚地表明,酒精损害超过法定限度(BAC≥0.08)对骑手伤害严重程度的安全性担忧升高。需要通过教育、执法和工程对策来优先考虑和解决酒后骑行及其对危险骑行行为的影响。关键词:单人摩托车碰撞;损伤严重程度;血液酒精含量(BAC)未观察到的异质性;注1酒精测试类型是可变的,根据碰撞分析报告(CAR)系统编码为“未给出测试”,“拒绝测试”和“未知,如果测试”。然而,相应的BAC测试号码在经过一些法律程序(医学测试和此类性质的警察案件优先处理)后更新,并在CAR数据库中提供完整的BAC测试信息。由于在警方报告的碰撞数据库中,BAC相关参数的更新是一个与时间相关的过程,相对较旧的数据在统计分析研究中可能更可靠(避免丢失或报告不足的问题)参见[Citation76]中有关佛罗里达州摩托车手年龄组的详细信息。摩托车手年龄对单摩托车碰撞损伤严重程度的影响,异质性未观察到。尽管碰撞数据集中还有许多其他变量,但表1仅显示了具有统计意义的变量。否则,变量列表及其描述性统计将相当长。

AbstractUndercarriage collision is dangerous for electric vehicle as battery pack is usually integrated into the vehicle floor. If battery pack is ploughed by obstacle on road, battery cells could be damaged, increasing risk of occurrence of internal short circuit and thermal runaway. To tackle the problem, we came up with inclined layout of battery cells for reducing damage in undercarriage collision. Using numerical simulations, we show why inclined battery cells can alleviate damage in undercarriage collisions. The load cases include vehicle’s initial speeds from 20 to 100 km/h and battery pack clearance overlapped with obstacle from 10 to 30 mm. Aligned with the new cell-to-pack packaging trend, the battery pack model used in this study only includes large size battery cells and has no module-level assemblies. A homogenised model of deformable battery cell was adopted for assessing damage. The results have shown that forward inclination of battery cells can reduce scraping resistance to battery pack, and thus lower the impact energy transferred to battery cells and jellyrolls. The 20° forward inclination was found to deliver better safety performance than the other layouts. Optimal inclination angle depends on structural design of battery pack and battery cells. In general, the safety enhancement is more prominent in severer undercarriage collisions.Keywords: Electric vehicleundercarriage collisionbattery safetyinclined battery cell AcknowledgmentsThe first author would like to express sincere thanks to Dr. Bobin Xing and Mr. Yuanjie Liu for their help in building the simulation model and conducting the analysis.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study was funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China [Grant No. 52172405].
摘要电动汽车底盘碰撞的危险性很大,因为电池组通常集成在汽车底板中。如果电池组被道路上的障碍物碾过,可能会损坏电池组,增加发生内部短路和热失控的风险。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了倾斜布局的电池,以减少损坏的底盘碰撞。通过数值模拟,我们展示了为什么倾斜电池可以减轻底盘碰撞时的损伤。负载情况包括车辆的初始速度为20至100公里/小时,电池组与障碍物重叠的间隙为10至30毫米。与新的电池到电池组封装趋势一致,本研究中使用的电池组模型仅包括大尺寸电池,没有模块级组件。采用变形电池的均质化模型进行损伤评估。结果表明,电池芯的前倾可以降低电池组的刮擦阻力,从而降低传递给电池芯和水母的冲击能量。研究发现,与其他布局相比,前倾20°的布局具有更好的安全性能。最佳倾角取决于电池组和电芯的结构设计。总的来说,在严重的底盘碰撞中,安全性增强更为突出。关键词:电动汽车底盘碰撞电池安全性倾斜电池致谢第一作者对邢伯斌博士和刘元杰先生帮助建立仿真模型并进行分析表示衷心的感谢。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究由国家自然科学基金资助[批准号:52172405]。

AbstractThe present work investigates the energy absorption performance of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates subjected to low-velocity normal and oblique impacts. Experimental tests are conducted on laminates exposed to varying impact energies at both normal and oblique angles. The numerical model is developed to simulate the dynamic response of the CFRP. The research employs a combination of experimental and numerical methods to reveal the underlying damage mechanisms. The changes observed in the oblique impact response are explained through an analysis of the damage mechanisms. Analytical models for each energy absorption mechanism are proposed based on the principles of energy conservation and the theory of large bending deformation of anisotropic materials. The energy absorption performance of the laminates under oblique impacts, considering rebound and penetration conditions, is discussed. It is found that the delamination is the primary energy absorption mechanism of CFRP laminate under rebound conditions, while elastic deformation of fibres is the primary energy absorption mechanism under penetration conditions. Furthermore, the energy absorption performance of the laminate is found to be affected by the peak force and effective thickness of the plate, which change with the oblique angle. This paper makes a significant contribution by utilising experimental, numerical, and theoretical approaches to gain insights into the damage mechanisms of laminates subjected to oblique impacts.Keywords: CFRPlow-velocity impactoblique impactdamage mechanismanalytical model Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThe authors acknowledge the financial support provided by the cooperative scientific research project of ‘Chunhui Program’ of Ministry of Education (HZKY20220292), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (51775228), the Natural Science Foundation of Shandong Province under Grant No. (ZR2020ME129), and the support from the International Joint Laboratory on Digital Laboratory of Lightweight Structure for Green Vehicle at the Harbin Institute of Technology for the research collaboration (ITCA10102001).

摘要本文研究了碳纤维增强聚合物(CFRP)层合板在低速法向和斜向冲击下的吸能性能。实验测试了受不同冲击能的层压板,并对其进行了正交和斜角冲击试验。建立了碳纤维布动态响应的数值模拟模型。该研究采用实验与数值相结合的方法来揭示潜在的损伤机制。通过对损伤机制的分析,解释了斜冲击响应中观察到的变化。基于能量守恒原理和各向异性材料大弯曲变形理论,提出了各种吸能机理的解析模型。考虑回弹和侵彻条件,讨论了层合板在斜冲击下的吸能性能。研究发现,回弹条件下,分层是CFRP层合板的主要吸能机制,而侵彻条件下,纤维的弹性变形是CFRP层合板的主要吸能机制。此外,发现层压板的吸能性能受板的峰值力和有效厚度的影响,它们随斜角的变化而变化。本文利用实验、数值和理论方法对层合板受斜冲击的损伤机制进行了深入的研究。关键词:cfr犁速冲击冲击损伤机制分析模型披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。作者感谢教育部“春晖计划”合作科研项目(HZKY20220292)、国家自然科学基金项目(51775228)、山东省自然科学基金项目(批准号:51775228)的资助。(ZR2020ME129),哈尔滨工业大学绿色汽车轻量化结构数字化实验室国际联合实验室(ITCA10102001)。第一作者在访问卡尔斯鲁厄理工学院(KIT)期间,向中国留学基金委(202006170147)表示感谢。

AbstractThe non-linear nature of vehicle crash safety simulations using the Finite Element Method (FEM) usually requires a significant investment in computational time and resources, in addition to the requirement of full CAD (Computer Aided Design) data availability, which is challenging to obtain during the concept stage. The current work explores the usage of Macro Element Method (MEM) based on simplified Super Beam Element (SBE), for which the shape functions are developed based on experimental observations rather than algebraic equations. MEM crash analysis run time doesn’t exceed several seconds and is one of the underutilised analytical models which can be used to quickly explore new design directions during the early concept stage of the vehicle and has higher potential to speed up the product development process. In this paper, initially, a calibration study was done to validate the MEM at a component level to compare the results with FEM and experimental values. FEM and MEM simulation models were developed and evaluated for a metallic thin-walled square frusta with varying semi-apical angles subjected to axial compression. The results were compared, and it was found that MEM results show more than 97% correlation compared to FEM and experimental results. Subsequently, a design modification was introduced in the component and the results show close degree of correlation between MEM and FEM. Similar process was followed for full vehicle level simulations, such as full width frontal crash, side pole crash analyses to understand the robustness of the method in applying it to product development environment.Keywords: FEMmacro element method (MEM)crashworthinessmachine learningsuper folding element (SFE)super beam element (SBE) AcknowledgementsThe first author would like to thank Dr. Akella Sarma for his invaluable motivation and guidance provided during this work.

摘要采用有限元法进行车辆碰撞安全仿真,由于其非线性特性,不仅需要充分的计算机辅助设计(CAD)数据可用性,而且在概念阶段很难获得,因此通常需要大量的计算时间和资源投入。本文研究了基于简化超梁单元(SBE)的宏观单元法(MEM)的应用,该方法的形状函数是基于实验观测而不是代数方程来开发的。MEM碰撞分析运行时间不超过几秒,是一种未被充分利用的分析模型,可用于在车辆早期概念阶段快速探索新的设计方向,具有加快产品开发过程的更高潜力。本文首先在部件水平上进行了校准研究,以验证MEM,并将结果与FEM和实验值进行比较。建立了具有不同半顶角的金属薄壁方台在轴压作用下的有限元和MEM仿真模型,并对其进行了数值模拟。结果表明,MEM计算结果与有限元计算结果和实验结果的相关性达97%以上。随后,对该构件进行了设计修改,结果表明MEM和FEM的相关度较高。在整车级仿真中,如全宽正面碰撞、侧杆碰撞分析,也遵循了类似的过程,以了解将该方法应用于产品开发环境中的鲁棒性。关键词:FEMmacro单元法(MEM)耐撞性机器学习超级折叠单元(SFE)超级梁单元(SBE)致谢第一作者要感谢Akella Sarma博士在这项工作中提供的宝贵激励和指导。第一作者感谢Ameet Hangarge先生和Arjun先生在工作中一直给予的支持。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。

AbstractThe widely used Vawter-Fung (VF) lung tissue constitutive model, originally developed to model respiration, was assessed for applicability to impact human body models (HBMs). A review of the mechanical properties of lung tissue demonstrated existing parameter sets for the VF model encompassed a wide range of stiffness relative to experimental data. Consistent experimental datasets of lung tissue for uniaxial and biaxial tension were identified, and new parameters were fit to the VF model. A thoracic pendulum impact using a contemporary HBM was used to assess existing literature parameter sets, and the new parameters. The VF model parameters presented in this study produced uniaxial and biaxial tension response with improved hyperelastic response compared to experimental data and previously reported parameters. The VF surface tension component did not contribute substantially to the lung response in impact. The proposed VF model parameters were numerically stable for impact simulations and use in HBMs.Keywords: Lung tissuemechanical propertiesmaterial parametersconstitutive modellinghuman body modelsimpact response Author contributions statementD.

AbstractThe specific energy absorption of thin-walled hybrid carbon fibre tubes is significantly enhanced by matrix materials. To further improve the energy absorption characteristics of CFRP, in this study, three types of CFRP thin-walled tubes were produced using various resin-modified carbon fibre prepregs, and quasi-static compression tests were carried out on the three types of tubes. By contrasting the energy absorption characteristics of three groups of tubes through experimental data, it was feasible to determine the impact of matrix modification on the energy absorption properties of CFRP tubes. The best absorption effect tube material was chosen for the relevant mechanical properties tests to obtain the material mechanical parameters, and the quasi-static compression process was simulated numerically using the explicit nonlinear finite element software LS-DYNA. The good correlation between the simulation data and the experimental results verified the reliability of the test method and the numerical model. On this basis, the effects of different ply parameters such as ply ratio, ply angle, and ply sequence on the energy absorption characteristics of the hybrid tubes were investigated by adding other modified fibre materials to the common carbon fibre material and performing finite element simulation.Keywords: Matrix resin modificationhybrid carbon fibreenergy absorption characteristicsply parameters Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

AbstractThe number of the collision accidents between Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and people on the ground increase in recent years. It is necessary to clarify human injury characteristics brought by the impact of UAV and promote its management. This study focuses on head and neck injury risk resulted from the impact of the UAV with a relatively large mass, and the difference brought by the UAV with a small mass. First, the model of the Y3-dummy (Hybrid III 50th) is developed. Second, simulations are conducted to analyse head and neck injury characteristics from Y3’s impact under different velocities, angles, and locations. With increasing the impact velocity, HIC and Nij increase with an exponential function and a power function, respectively. When the vertical impact velocity exceeds 5 m/s, both head and neck have a high probability of injury, while for the horizontal impact, the corresponding velocity is 9 m/s. As the impact angle increases, the changes of HIC satisfy the form of the sum of two exponential functions, and Nij changes in the form of the sum of a power function and a quadratic polynomial function. When the impact angle is close to 0°, the head injury risk is relatively high, while for 58°, the neck is more likely to be injury. The injuries induced by the top of mainframe and the front of the long arm are more serious. Finally, the differences in head and neck injury characteristics under different velocities and locations for UAVs with different masses are compared.Keywords: Small UAVdroneimpacthead and neck injuryfinite element analysis Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 51975041) and the Funding of Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for Civil Aircraft (Grant No. MJ-2018-F-18).
摘要近年来,无人机与地面人员碰撞事故不断增多。明确无人机冲击带来的人身伤害特点,加强对无人机的管理是十分必要的。本研究重点研究了大质量无人机撞击造成的头颈部损伤风险,以及小质量无人机带来的差异。首先,研制了三号假人(Hybrid III 50)模型。其次,通过仿真分析Y3在不同速度、角度和位置下的冲击头颈部损伤特征。随着冲击速度的增加,HIC和Nij分别呈指数函数和幂函数增长。当垂直冲击速度超过5 m/s时,头部和颈部损伤的概率都很高,而水平冲击速度为9 m/s。随着冲击角的增大,HIC的变化符合两个指数函数和的形式,Nij的变化符合幂函数和二次多项式的形式。当撞击角度接近0°时,头部受伤的风险相对较高,而当撞击角度为58°时,颈部更容易受伤。主机顶部和长臂前部的损伤更为严重。最后,比较了不同质量无人机在不同速度和位置下头颈部损伤特征的差异。关键词:小型无人机撞击头颈部损伤有限元分析披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。本研究由国家自然科学基金(批准号:51975041)和工业和信息化部民用飞机研究基金(批准号:51975041)资助。mj - 2018 f - 18)。

AbstractIn this paper, the response of different bird constitutive models under high-speed impact was analysed by numerical methods, and the accuracy of the bird models was evaluated based on the experiments of bird impact on titanium alloy plates. Firstly, the finite element software LS-DYNA was used to build the model of bird impact on a titanium alloy plate. The impact deformation of the plate was investigated, and the numerical results were compared with the experiments. Next, the time histories of kinetic energy and impact force for different models were analysed. Finally, the deformation of the birds during the impact was compared. The results show that the hydrodynamic fluidic material model has the advantage in predicting the displacement of the plate, especially at the impact velocity of 180 m/s, and the predicted displacement results match the experiment the best. The kinetic energy of the four material models can reflect the displacement results. The kinetic energy of the hydrodynamic fluidic material model decays slowly, with the most remaining kinetic energy and the largest plate displacement; the kinetic energy of the elastic-plastic model decays fastest, with the minor remaining kinetic energy and the smallest plate displacement.Keywords: Bird-strikenumerical simulationconstitutive modelsmoothed particle hydrodynamics AcknowledgementsThe authors acknowledge the support from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (52202442).Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

AbstractCrash blackspots significantly impact and, to some extent, determines the entire road network’s safety level. Therefore, it is imperative to identify these blackspots and investigate the contributing factors. This becomes particularly crucial for low-income countries facing financial constraints in implementing road safety measures. Methodologically multiple studies utilised random parameter negative binomial models to predict vehicle crashes due to their ability to address unobserved heterogeneity in crash data, surpassing conventional models. However, the potential of this promising method in investigating factors influencing crash blackspots remains underutilised. This study aims to identify crash blackspots and investigates the roadway factors of such segments using the random parameters negative binomial modelling method. A three-year (2017–2019) crash data collected from the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, with traffic volumes and various geometric characteristics were utilised. The model estimation results demonstrate the superiority of the random parameter negative binomial model over conventional models, showcasing its ability to reveal unobserved heterogeneity associated with road condition factors in crash blackspots. The study finds that horizontal curves and access density are significant road condition-related contributors to crash blackspots, characterised as random parameters. On the other hand, fixed-parameter influence factors include average annual daily traffic, vertical gradient, vertical curve, median width, and traffic control devices. The study highlights the need to further explore horizontal curvatures and access control as potential random parameters in crash blackspot locations. The findings may assist transportation planners/agencies in prioritising road maintenance, enhancing design standards, and implementing targeted safety interventions to improve road safety effectively.Keywords: Addis Ababacrash blackspotsnegative binomial modelroad conditionrandom parameters Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study was jointly supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos. 72371082, 71871189) and the China Scholarship Council.
摘要碰撞黑点严重影响并在一定程度上决定着整个路网的安全水平。因此,必须识别这些黑点并调查其成因。这对于在实施道路安全措施方面面临财政限制的低收入国家尤为重要。在方法上,多项研究利用随机参数负二项模型来预测车辆碰撞,因为它们能够解决碰撞数据中未观察到的异质性,优于传统模型。然而,这种有前途的方法在调查影响坠机黑点的因素方面的潜力仍未得到充分利用。本研究采用随机参数负二项建模方法,识别碰撞黑点,并研究碰撞黑点路段的道路因素。研究人员使用了从埃塞俄比亚首都亚的斯亚贝巴收集的三年(2017-2019年)车祸数据,包括交通量和各种几何特征。模型估计结果表明,随机参数负二项模型优于传统模型,能够揭示碰撞黑点中与道路状况因素相关的未观察到的异质性。研究发现,水平曲线和通道密度是与道路状况相关的碰撞黑点的重要因素,其特征为随机参数。另一方面,固定参数影响因素包括年平均日交通量、垂直梯度、垂直曲线、中位数宽度和交通控制设备。该研究强调需要进一步探索水平曲率和访问控制作为坠机黑点位置的潜在随机参数。研究结果可以帮助交通规划者/机构确定道路维护的优先顺序,提高设计标准,并实施有针对性的安全干预措施,以有效改善道路安全。关键词:亚的斯亚贝巴拉什黑点负二项模型道路条件随机参数披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究由国家自然科学基金(资助号:72371082,71871189)和中国国家留学基金委共同资助。

AbstractThe reliability of the traction converter, a core component in the power traction system of the CRH380 EMU equipment, is heavily reliant on the performance of its cooling unit. The service life of the cooling unit is primarily impacted by its material performance. In order to investigate the material performance of the cooling unit, an impact model was established by using the finite element method. The stress distribution of the cooling unit, made of different materials, was analysed under various impact loads. The accuracy of the calculation results was verified through experiments. The research results show that stress concentration and cracks were identified in the cooling unit of the initial material when subjected to different impact loads. Consequently, an improvement scheme was proposed, which resulted in reduced deformation of the cooling unit, enhanced damage resistance, and an overall mass reduction of approximately 138 kg. These improvements can effectively increase the service life of the cooling unit. The research findings can serve as a reference for further research and optimisation of cooling unit materials.Keywords: High-speed traintraction converter cooling unitmaterial impact performanceservice lifefinite element method (FEM) Disclosure statementThe authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.Additional informationFundingThe authors are grateful for the support from the Youth Funding Project of Hubei Polytechnic University (No. 21xjz03Q) and the open project of Intelligent Transportation Technology and Equipment of Hubei Provincial Key Laboratory (No. 2020XZ109).
