| Abstract | While passive safety assessment is well established in regulation and consumer testing, active safety assessment has only emerged recently. An integrated safety system is one which consists of both active and passive safety devices. Assessment of these systems is in its infancy and is the subject of current research. The current challenge is to define a methodology which integrates active and passive assessments and takes into account the influence that the active safety system has on the boundary conditions for the passive safety system. The current study is focused on developing a methodology to assess integrated pedestrian systems. Some previous research work has been performed to develop methodologies to assess these systems but to date no methodology has been developed which integrates the active and passive assessments fully and takes into account the effect of the active safety system on the passive safety system boundary conditions. |
