Abstract

Analyses of some of available experimental results suggest that frontal and rear- end automobile collision processes may be simulated by a simple model with a mass, which represents the vehicle mass, and a spring which represents the resisting force due to crushing of the vehicle structure. The occupant's motion is also studied by a simulated model.
