Abstract:

Investigated the effectiveness of vehicle brake control protection methods proposed earlier by the author under parametric perturbations. MADYMO virtual simulation software was used to simulate 4 types of typical locomotive, and 3 parameters for analyzing the influence of disturbance on the braking control and protection method; The 3 parameters including the first contact time between human head and vehicle body, the braking system coordination time, and the road adhesion factor. The results show that the first contact time between the human head and the car body is 80~100 ms, which has the most significant impact on the reduction of weighted injury cost (WIC), but the parameter sensitivity ranking is different in different vehicle types. When the disturbance of road adhesion factor is 0.45~0.80, the damage of human-vehicle collision does not increase, but the decrease of WIC caused by ground is greater than zero, which can effectively reduce the damage of human-ground collision. When the disturbance interval of the coordination time parameter of the braking system is 80~350 ms, the braking control and protection method is still effective.

Key words: pedestrian-vehicle collisions, pedestrian ground contact injury, vehicle brake control, parameter perturbation, coefficient of road adhesion, coordination time of the braking system
