In this study, for a safety assessment of wheelchair occupant in side impact, we used a dynamic sled impact test results. The test was carried out total 6 times and impact speed was 13g$\pm$0.43/28km/h$\pm$0.95, By using EURO SID-1 dummy, head performance criteria(HPC), abdominal peak force, etc. were measured. We evaluated wheelchair occupant safety by motion criteria(MC) which was measured by head, trunk and side deformation change of wheelchair and Head & Neck injury criteria(HNI) measured by using head and neck deformation angle and time relation. When we assumed that the maximum injury value in side impact was 100%, the results of motion criteria(MC) of wheelchair occupant were max 80.3, mim 32.3 and average 60.3%, Head & Neck injury criteria(HNI) value were max 118.4, min 14.5 and average 59.7%.

자동차 측면 충돌사고는 충격흡수공간이 충분하지 않기 때문에 정면 충돌사고와는 달리 발생빈도에 비하여 탑승자의 상해비율이 매우 높은 경향을 나타낸다. 측면 충돌사고 발생시 탑승자를 보호하기 위하여 전세계 각국에서는 자동차안전기준 및 안전도평가 등의 법규를 시행 및 강화하고 있다. 그러나 차체 자체의 충격흡수력을 이용한 수동 안전방식으로는 협소한 공간에 기술을 적용하는데 한계가 있다. 커튼 에어백은 측면 에어백과 함께 현재로서는 측면충돌시 탑승자를 보호하는 가장 효과적인 시스템이다. 본 연구에서는 측면 충돌사고 발생시 탑승자의 머리상해지수를 감소시키기 위한 커튼 에어백의 최적설계를 수행하였다. 충돌 시뮬레이션을 바탕으로 직교배열표와 일원표, 그리고 반응표면법을 순차적으로 적용하고 각각의 결과에 대하여 확인실험으로 검증하여 커튼 에어백의 최적설계를 수행하였다.

The Child Occupant Safety Assessment was first introduced and carried out by Euro NCAP in 2003, with the goal of ensuring manufacturers to develop safe vehicles for passengers of all ages; the objective was to evaluate the safety and protection offered by different Child Restraint Systems (CRS) in the event of a crash. In 2013, the formerly used P child dummy series was replaced by newer and more biofidelic Q1.5 and Q3 child dummies, representing 1.5 and 3 year old children respectively. The frontal and side impact dynamic performances of the Q1.5 and Q3 were tested within all classes of vehicles assessed by Euro NCAP at the time. As an extension to that initiative, Q6 and Q10 child dummies were later developed representing children of 6 and 10 years old. Since the protection of larger children during vehicle crashes relies greatly on the interaction of vehicle restraint systems such as seat belt and the CRS, instrumented Q6 and Q10 dummies will be used to assess the protection offered in the event of front and side impact crashes. In this paper, we focused on injury criteria of Q6 and Q10 child dummies at 64 kph 40% offset frontal crash test. The whole procedure was designed with DFSS analysis. The full vehicle sled test results of both dummies were conducted with different restraint systems settled through previous sled test. It showed that several injury criteria and image data were collected as the result of the full vehicle sled test. Based on the results of these investigations, this paper describes which factor is most important and combination shows the best performance when evaluating rear seat occupant protection for Q6 and Q10 child dummies.
