Abstract:

Based on the anthropometric parameters of Chinese 50th percentile adult male, a head model of Chinese physical sign safety dummy with biomechanical response of eye tissue is developed. The acceleration response of the head model in the drop calibration test is verified in LS?DYNA software, and the influence of airbag on eye tissue damage under frontal impact condition is explored. The damage risk curve of normalized energy and damage probability of eye tissue is established by using the simulation data. The results show that in the head drop simulation test, the head acceleration response of the Chinese physical sign crash dummy is higher than that of the Hybrid III dummy; in the frontal crash condition, the simulation test results of the occupant restraint system show that when the crash speed is higher than 55 km/h, the risk of retinal detachment will increase, and the von Mises stress and deformation of sclera will reach the threshold of eyeball rupture.

Key words: Chinese physical signs, head model, eye tissue, von Mises stress
