| Abstract | Whiplash injury is the most commonly occurring injury in road traffic accidents, although it is classed as a minor injury in low speed rear impact. It is not easy to define the relationship between medical diagnostic and dummy injury values of physical test, but it frequently results in a high social cost, such as body injury insurance claims. According to traffic statistics data in TASS (Traffic Accident Analysis System) and KIDI (Korea Insurance Development Institute), about 52% (708,000) of insurance claims stemmed from rear impact accidents, despite the fact that rear impact accounted for only 27.8% of total car‐to‐car accidents in 2013 and neck ‘cervical spinal’ injury accounted for 37.8% of total rear impact claims [1‐2]. New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) and insurance companies published whiplash performance assessment results using a BioRID II 50th percentile dummy, which was developed specifically for use in low‐severity rear impact. In this paper, simulation of injury values based on dummy position changes that can occur in real‐life driving situations was estimated in low speed (10 km/h, 16 km/h) rear impact scenarios using multibody dynamics simulation software MADYMO. |
