Thoracic injury assessment for improved vehicle safety (THORAX)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"About 41,600 people were killed and more than 1.7 million injured in European road accidents in 2005. Although the number of road fatalities has declined by more than 17% since 2001, more efforts will have to be made if the EC's targets on reduction of road fatalities and injuries are to be met. The THORAX Project will focus on reduction and prevention of thoracic injuries, one of the dominant ca ...

Adaptive seat to reduce neck injuries for female and male occupants (ADSEAT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"The development of adaptive safety systems addressing vehicle occupant protection requires the use of in depth knowledge of various occupant features, specifically those related to the risk of injury. All occupants in passenger vehicles are at risk of sustaining whiplash injuries in a low severity crash. Whiplash associated disorders (WAD), so called whiplash injuries, resulting from car crashes, ...

Coordination of Vehicle and Road Safety Initiatives (COVER)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"In 2005, around 41,600 people were killed and more than 1.7 million injured in European road accidents.

Assessment of Integrated Vehicle Safety Systems for improved vehicle safety (ASSESS)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"ASSESS mobilises the European research community and car industry to develop a relevant set of test and assessment methods applicable to a wide range of integrated vehicle safety systems. Methods will be developed for driver behavioural aspects, pre crash sensing performance and crash performance under conditions influenced by pre crash driver and vehicle actions. The gained know-how will be impl ...

Frontal Impact and Compatibility Assessment Research (FIMCAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

"For the real life assessment of vehicle’s safety in frontal collision the compatibility (described by the self protection level and the structural interaction) between the opponents is crucial. Although compatibility has been analysed worldwide for years, no final assessment approach was defined. Taking into account the EEVC WG15 and the FP5 VC-COMPAT project activities, two test approaches are t ...

Enabling protection for older children (EPOCH)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

Across most of Europe, children under 3 years must use an appropriate child restraint in any vehicle. If seat belts are fitted, the law now also requires children up to the age of 12 years or up to 150 cm in height to use an appropriate child restraint. Child restraints sold in the EU must conform to UNECE Regulation 44. To date, the regulations in this field have relied on the P series child dum ...
