This book was released on 1990 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literature search has been conducted to determine the status of knowledge of the crashworthiness aspects of general aviation aircraft. Research and development work relating to seats, restraints, and floor structures of general aviation aircraft has been selected for review. The primary goal of crashworthiness studies has been the reduction of fatal and serious accidents. Study of the work on seats, restraints and floor structures has revealed that more attention to several research topics could ameliorate high accident rates in general aviation. (jes).

Download or read book Crashworthiness Studies: Cabin, Seat, Restraint, and Injury Findings in Selected General Aviation Accidents written by William R. Kirkham and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews 47 survivable or partly survivable accidents investigated since 1973 by personnel from the Civil Aeromedical Institute. The accidents were reviewed for a number of features of crashworthiness and, in particular, for injuries to occupants in relation to the severity of the impact and the performance of cabin and restraint systems. Opinions were rendered by trained crash injury investigators as to the role or expected role in seats and upper torso restraints in adding to or lessening the injuries. The data support the general concepts that nonoccupiable portions of the aircraft receive greater physical damage than occupiable areas. The greatest damage to the occupiable area is to the forward portion of cockpit/cabin and the occupants have a greater chance of survival if the cockpit/cabin remains reasonably intact. Occupants seated forward in the cockpit/cabin receive greater injuries than those seated more rearward. Further, the findings suggest tha seat placement or seat failure to one degree or another intensified injuries (as compared to more optimum crashworthy seats) to occupants in at least 30 percent of the accidents reviewed. Upper torso restraints, in the few instances used, were beneficial, and had they been used by all occupants, would have significantly reduced the injuries. The report discusses the relation of the occupant to the seat and restraint system and the apparent benefit to be derived from a well-designed impact attenuating seat and, in particular, use of an upper torso restraint.

Download or read book Aircraft Crashworthiness written by Richard F. Chandler and published by SAE International. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although isolated examples of crashworthiness can be found in aircraft which pre-date the designs of the Wright brothers, the first crashworthiness research project was undertaken in 1942 at Cornell University Medical College. The study investigated aircraft crashes to determine the causes of injuries and supported a development program for improving crashworthy design. The aviation industry quickly applied the results of the study, and by the early 1950s, crashworthy design features were incorporated into several airplanes. However, lack of consumer interest forced many of these designs to be dropped. In the 60s and 70s, most of the crashworthiness research pertained to military helicopter design. In the 80s, the lack of crashworthiness standards were seen as one reason for the increase in product liability litigation, bringing on a renewed interest in crashworthy design. In the 90s, aircraft crashworthiness is becoming an increasingly important issue with the push towards zero-tolerance of crashes. In a single source, Aircraft Crashworthiness brings together thirty technical papers which cover the past forty years of progress in this area.These papers were selected because of their significance in the development of crashworthiness technology. Aircraft Crashworthiness will be an ideal addition to the bookshelves of aerospace design engineers, airline industry safety personnel, government administrators, and anyone interested in the impact crashworthy design has on aircraft safety.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of aircraft crash structural response research has been carried out by studying the literature, discussions with researchers working in that area, and visits to facilitates/personnel involved in conducting and/or monitoring aircraft crash structural response investigations. Aircraft structures consisting of conventional built-up metallic construction and those consisting of advanced composite materials were of interest. The latter type of material and construction is of particular interest since their use is expanding rapidly, and crashworthiness of such structures is of increasing importance. Some recent theoretical and experimental studies of the behavior of composite-material structures subjected to severe static, dyanmic, and/or impact conditions are noted. Such topics as crashworthiness testing of composite fuselage structures, the impact resistance of graphite and hybrid configurations, and the effects of elastomeric additives on the mechanical properties of epoxy resin and composite systems are reviewed. A reivew is made of some current and planned research to investigate experimentally the mechanical failure, postfailure, and energy-absorbing behavior of a sequence of composite-material structural elements and structural assemblages subjected to static loads or to simulated crash-impact loads.

Book excerpt: Volume I of a study to review the existing status of North American R&D in small aircraft crashworthiness, to identify gaps or areas where further R&D would be beneficial, and to propose R&D program areas which would not only contribute to the enhancement of the safety of small aircraft but also comprise a meaningful Canadian contribution to joint aeronautical R&D efforts between the U.S. and Canada. The report reviews the chronology of crashworthiness regulations, describes future regulations and outlines the implications of U.S. regulatory developments on Canadian requirements. R&D activities in both the U.S. and Canada are summarized, particularly those since 1980. Existing accident investigation analyses carried out in support of small aircraft crashworthiness R&D are examined.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systematic treatment of current crashworthiness practice in the automotive, railroad and aircraft industries. Structural, exterior and interior design, occupant biomechanics, seat and restraint systems are dealt with, taking account of statistical data, current regulations and state-of-the-art design tool capabilities. Occupant kinematics and biomechanics are reviewed, leading to a basic understanding of human tolerance to impact and of the use of anthropometric test dummies and mathematical modelling techniques. Different types of restraining systems are described in terms of impact biomechanics. The material and structural behaviour of vehicle components is discussed in relation to crash testing. A variety of commonly used techniques for simulating occupants and structures are presented, in particular the use of multibody dynamics, finite element methods and simplified macro-elements, in the context of design tools of increasing complexity, which can be used to model both vehicles and occupants. Audience: An excellent reference for researchers, engineers, students and all other professionals involved in crashworthiness work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of major research activities in North America with respect to the crashworthiness of composite aircraft structures was performed with the goal of identifying potential Canadian contribution to R & D areas where effort would be required to complement the on-going programs in the United States. Recommendations include a study on the effect of aircraft size on crashworthiness design requirements; the implementation of the KRASH code in Canada to establish commonality in analytical methods with major U.S. and European users; an investigation on the energy absorption capabilities of the design features for small aircraft containing composite and/or composite/hybrid structures; and a parametric study on the crashworthiness design of composite-to-composite and composite-to-metal joints.
