Effect of Vehicle Seat on Neck Injury in Rear Impact

Seat is a main part of vehicle to contact with occupant in rear impact and chiefly concern with the severity of neck injuries. Therefore, improvement in seat design can effectively reduce the neck injuries of occupant. For designing an effective vehicle seat to protect occupant, this study develops the numerical model of sled test by using MADYMO software and discusses the relevance between the seat parameters and occupant’s neck based on the validated numerical model. The seat parameters include the stiffness of seat angle device, seat friction and angle of head restraint. The discussion of influencing factors of seat can be referred for designing a safety seat. The occupant neck then can be protected in rear impact accidents.
