Traffic collisions are incidents with high fatality rate which generate billions of US dollars of
loss worldwide each year. Post-collision scene reconstruction, which involves knowledge of …

Fatal and serious injuries of vulnerable road users (VRU) occur frequently in the events of
vehicle impact. Front-end crashworthiness of vehicle can considerably affect VRU injuries in …

Car-electric bicycle (e-bike) accidents have been the subject of strong attention due to the
widespread usage of e-bikes and a high casualty rate for their riders. Manually conducted …

This study evaluates the effectiveness of various widely used head injury criteria (HICs) in
predicting vulnerable road user (VRU) head injuries due to road traffic accidents. Thirty-one …

Brain's micro-structure plays a critical role in its macro-structure material properties. Since
the structural anisotropy in the brain white matter has been introduced due to axonal fibers …

Compared with the young, the elderly (age greater than or equal to 60 years old) vulnerable
road users (VRUs) face a greater risk of injury or death in a traffic accident. A contributing …

Cycling helmets play a crucial role in protecting against head injuries, however, their
effectiveness in mitigating all types of head injury is limited, particularly traumatic brain …

The aim of this study is to provide an improved method for traffic accident reconstruction
based on geomatics techniques and numerical simulations. A combination of various …

A more Accurate description of the mechanical behavior of brain tissue could improve the
results of computational models. While most studies have assumed brain tissue as an …

Abstract Vulnerable Road users (VRUs) often suffer multiple fatal head injury types
simultaneously in road accidents. In this study, a head-weighted injury criterion (HWIC 4) …
