“…A number of research results concerning the driver's neck injuries in the low speed rear collision indicates the neck injuries would be decreased by increasing the headrest stiffness and the lower seatback stiffness, and by reducing the upper seatback stiffness and the recliner rotational stiffness of the seatback [12][13][14][15][16]. Differences of the driver's neck injuries between in the late stage of the frontal collision and in the low speed rear collision lie in the effects of the headrest stiffness on the neck injuries, which are opposite, and increasing the lower seatback stiffness can reduce the neck injuries in the low speed rear collision; however, the change of the lower seatback stiffness has no obvious effect on the neck injuries in the late stage of the frontal collision.…”

The aim of this study is to investigate the driver's neck movement and injuries in the late stage of frontal collision. Firstly, the simulation model of the driver restraint system was developed and validated. Secondly, the design parameters of airbag and safety belt were optimized globally in the early stage of frontal collision. Finally, the driver's neck movement state and the effects of the design parameters of driver seat on the neck injuries in the late stage of frontal collision were studied. The movement state of the driver's upper and lower neck could be divided into three phases, and the peak extension bending moments of the upper and lower neck all occur in the second phase. By reducing the headrest stiffness and the upper seatback stiffness of driver seat, the rotational stiffness of the seatback recliner of driver seat, the upper and lower neck injuries can be decreased significantly.

There are various causes for vibrations on diesel engines. The engine vibrations depend not only on the present state of the engine, but also on the fuel quality, the environmental conditions (sea state in the case of shipborne engines), type of casing, other equipment in the vicinity, etc. The engines used for this study are installed aboard a ship, and the main aim is to use modified control charts to assess the condition of the engine and recommend corrective measures when necessary. An important issue to do this correctly is choosing the right places to measure vibration. The collected data is vibration at various engine power levels, measured at various points. The engine’s fault history is taken into consideration, but proved to be almost irrelevant. By using modified control charts, the engine vibrations can be estimated, and faults can be detected and classified so as to take corrective actions. In this study we followed a methodology that is slightly different from our previous work, and achieved good results.
