Abstract

Improving occupant survivability during a rollover accident requires a detailed analysis of the dynamics and statistical significance of a particular rollover situation as well as the structural performance of the vehicle involved. A two-dimensional model describing vehicle rollover has been developed which, in conjunction with a proposed index of performance, allows such an evaluation.
