TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - A study on behavior of flexible legform impactor(second report): comparative study with leg behavior of human FE model JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Miyazaki, Hiroshi A1 - Kitagawa, Yuichi A1 - Yasuki, Tsuyoshi A1 - Kuwahara, Masaaki A1 - Matsuoka, Fumio SP - 1159 EP - 1164 VL - 40 IS - 5 N2 - The study examined the test condition for the pedestrian lower leg protection using a Flex impactor FE model. The effects of the impactor height and an additional mass were discussed comparing the kinematics and responses to those of a human FE model. The results showed that the impactor at a height of 75 mm from the ground generates closer moment and bending responses to that of the human model. The study also found that a mass of 6 kg attached to the impactor top could improve the femur kinematics when impacted to SUVs.
