This paper presents the validation of a 50th-percentile male multi-body human model specifically developed for rear-impact simulation. The aim is to develop a biofidelic model with the simplest architecture that can simulate the interaction of the human body with the seat during rear impact. The model was validated using the head-and-neck and torso responses of seven volunteers from the Japanese Automobile Research Institute sled tests, which were performed at an impact speed of 8km/h with a rigid seat and without head restraint and seat belt. The results indicate that the human-body model can effectively mimic the rear-impact response of a 50th-percentile male with a good level of accuracy and has the potential to predict whiplash injury.

Digital Module

Through the ergonomic analysis module that is based on the CATIA software platform, the virtual human body model is introduced into the rescue cabin digital module of ambulance and thus the virtual man-machine relationship is established; meanwhile, the theories of ergonomics are employed as guidance for the optimization design of rescue cabin so as to probe into how the CATIA-based ergonomic analysis module is applied in product development and design.
