This book was released on 1964 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Information Report provides data regarding human tolerance to impact conditions. It is intended that this information will aid those having to do with the planning or designing of motor vehicles in which people may experience high forces, to so design various components to reduce the likelihood or severity of injury.This information is based on currently available knowledge and experience in the biomechanical field. However, in utilizing the information set forth, it must be recognized that both experience and data in the field of biomechanics are extremely limited and, in some cases, unrefined.It is intended that all portions of the paper be subjected to continuing review and that it be revised as additional knowledge and experience would warrant.

Download or read book Introduction to Modern Vehicle Design written by Julian Happian-Smith and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-07-16 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Modern Vehicle Design provides a thorough introduction to the many aspects of passenger car design in one volume. Starting with basic principles, the author builds up analysis procedures for all major aspects of vehicle and component design. Subjects of current interest to the motor industry, such as failure prevention, designing with modern materials, ergonomics and control systems are covered in detail, and the author concludes with a discussion on the future trends in automobile design. With contributions from both academics lecturing in motor vehicle engineering and those working in the industry, "An Introduction to Modern Vehicle Design" provides students with an excellent overview and background in the design of vehicles before they move on to specialised areas. Filling the niche between the more descriptive low level books and books which focus on specific areas of the design process, this unique volume is essential for all students of automotive engineering. Only book to cover the broad range of topics for automobile design and analysis procedures Each topic written by an expert with many years experience of the automotive industry

Book excerpt: This important book focuses on the role of human factors in the design and use of automobiles. It should review current knowledge of human characteristics as related to passenger car design and thus serve as a basis for new car design and design evaluation. Comprehensive and accessible, the book is organized around the following themes: human capabilities and limitations in car design - anthropometry, biomechanics, human vision, motorskills, and cognition; the physical aspects of car design - occupant packaging', entry and egress, seating, luggage loading, occupant protection, thermal environment; informational aspects of design - displays and controls, HUDS, icons, warnings, vehicle lighting and sounds; and special topics such as driving performance models, driver workload, older drivers, and computer-aided ergonomic design.; It is Aimed At Automotive Designers, Government Agencies Concerned With Car passenger transport issues and the ergonomics research community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Injury is a leading cause of death, hospitalisation and disability world-wide. The World Health Organization predicts that unintentional injuries arising from road traffic incidents will rise to take third place in the rank order of international disease burden by the year 2030. Although these statistics and the associated economic costs are staggering, the effect of unintentional injury and death from trauma is more apparent, and more disturbing, when seen personally. By a young age, nearly everyone in the world, regardless of region, wealth or education, has had a relative or someone that they know killed or disabled in an "accident". The quality of life and financial effects on the injured person and their families and friends are plainly evident and clearly devastating. Many unintentional injuries are in reality not accidents; they could be prevented with changes in policy, education, or through improved safety devices. Arrayed against these preventable injuries, a diverse group of injury prevention researchers and practitioners work to decrease the incidence of unintentional injury. In trauma biomechanics, the principles of mechanics are used to understand how injuries happen at the level of the bones, joints, organs and tissues of the body. This knowledge is central in the development, characterization and improvement of safety devices such as helmets and seat belts and in the safe design of vehicles and equipment used for transportation, occupation and recreation.
