Fundamentals of Automotive Crash Safety | 汽车碰撞安全基础

In this course we systematically teach fundamental knowledge and theory and the state-of-the-art technologies of vehicle crash safety and human body impact protection. This course includes following parts:

Safety characteristics of vehicle body structure, kinematics and dynamics of vehicle responses and occupant responses in vehicle crash

Human body injuries in vehicle collision accidents

Crash dummies and crash tests for crash safety assessment

Occupant restraint systems

Pedestrian impact protection

Lightweight vehicle and safety

Characterization and modeling of vehicle materials and structures under impact loading

Impact failure analysis and protection of battery of electric vehicles

Occupant safety protection in autonomous driving vehicles

What you'll learn

• Critical role of vehicle safety in vehicle product and design
• Constraints of vehicle crash protection from the requirements of light-weighting and packaging
• Mechanisms of human body injuries under impact loading as well as the protection principles
• Evolution and limitations of vehicle safety technologies and how the new technologies can provide individualized and adaptive protection
• Failure and thermal run away of lithium-ion batteries under crash loading
