The directive 2003/102/CE intends to reduce the injuries of the pedestrians during frontal impact with passenger cars. The directive describes the device that must be employed to simulate pedestrian head: HIC is used to evaluate the severity of the impact.

Abstract

The directive 2003/102/CE intends to reduce the injuries of the pedestrians during frontal impact with passenger cars. The directive describes the device that must be employed to simulate pedestrian head: HIC is used to evaluate the severity of the impact. This work has two goals: to realize a FE model of pedestrian headform impactor; to optimize the car bonnet structure in order to reduce the accelerations and consequently the HIC (Head Injury Criteria) [Schmitt,2007].
