Crash Simulation of Straddle-Type Monorail Vehicle Body and Human Injury Research

Abstract

In this paper, Based on collision simulation theory, a straddle-type monorail vehicle was considered as the research object. A collision model of Straddle-type monorail vehicle with human body model was set up. The course of collision between the straddle-type monorail vehicle and a rigid wall was simulated. During the body collision process, some parameters, such as velocity, displacement, energy and the injury of diver, were analyzed. According to the simulation results, the stiffness of vehicle and ability of energy absorption were evaluated.
