description: This study quantified the local fracture tolerance of the distal fibula. The purpose of this data is to refine the understanding of ankle fracture tolerance in the population and enhance injury prediction by computational tools. Fracture patterns of the fibula were obtained from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Crash Injury Research Engineering Network (CIREN). Of 143 cases of ankle injury, 120 included fibula fracture, many of which accompanied by radiology images. The most common fibula fracture type was a Weber C fracture, which was then used as the testing target to replicate with postmortem human surrogates. Isolated distal fibulae (male and female, across a wide anthropometric range) were subjected to quasi-static lateral-medial four-point bending superimposed on axial precompression. Of the 20 specimens tested, 17 fractured in compression and bending, two fractured in compression, bending, and shear, and one did not fracture upon the imposed displacement. Fractures occurring outside of the target testing span were treated as right-censored data points. Fracture patterns varied among specimens, with oblique fractures being most common, followed by segmental fractures. At failure, compressive force ranged from 77 N to 370 N and bending moment from 17 Nm to 47 Nm. From the 19 fractured specimens, the variety of fracture patterns observed were generally consistent with the range of fibula fracture types and locations commonly observed in the field. While comparative studies with fibula specimens are largely absent from literature, comparison of this study to other long bones (radius and ulna) show that bending moment at fracture is similar. To the author’s knowledge, this is the first study to quantify the fracture tolerance of isolated distal fibulae under loading conditions representative of ankle injury mechanisms in motor vehicle collisions. By combining the results of this study with complementary results from parallel tibia-focused experiments (currently in-press), these results will aid development of tissue-level lower leg fracture prediction of human body models, thus enhancing prediction of ankle injury during safety assessment simulations. Specifically, the fracture tolerance information might generate an injury risk function to guide tissue-level injury prediction with human body models.

description: Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe evidenced-based assessment practices for school-age children with any severity of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that could inform the practice of speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Method: A scoping review of the literature was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. Included studies were assigned thematic labels related to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health framework. Results: A total of 30 articles met inclusion criteria for this study. Most studies included adolescent or teenage participants with mild TBIs in the acute stages of recovery. Twenty-two different assessments were reported on for children with TBI addressing body structure/function (n = 19 assessments), activities and participation (n = 1 assessment), and contextual factors (n = 3 assessments). Conclusions: Current assessments have a clear focus on body structure/function for adolescents after childhood TBI, with little research evidence to address activities and participation or contextual factors. The limited amount of functional assessments directly related to the SLP scope of practice stresses the need for additional research on ecologically valid and comprehensive assessment approaches for school-age children with TBI. The results of this review could be utilized as a resource in providing theoretical, evidence-based, and person-centered evaluation methods for children with TBI.
 Supplemental Material S1. Key findings of the assessments included in this review. Key findings highlight information about assessment reliability, validity, and feasibility relevant to the SLP’s scope of practice.

description: Varying initial belt torso contact (i.e., belt gap) on belt-positioning boosters may have implications for potential shoulder belt slip-off in low-speed evasive vehicle maneuvers and differences in dynamic outcomes in frontal sled tests. This study evaluated the influence of initial booster belt gap and belt fit conditions on the kinematic and kinetic outcomes during frontal oblique impacts. Frontal oblique (+15° from frontal) sled tests (n = 18; 23.6 ± 0.1 g at 12.4 ± 0.1 ms) were conducted using the Q-Series 6-year-old (Q6) and 10-year-old (Q10) and the Large Omni Directional Child (LODC) anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs). Various initial belt fit and belt gap conditions were investigated by evaluating each ATD on 2 high-back (HB), 3 low-back (LB), and 1 low-profile (Low) booster. Initial belt fit and belt gap were quantified, and boosters were categorized as “smaller gap” or “larger gap” for comparison. Larger-gap boosters produced greater peak lumbar FY and MZ (HB: −23.2 ± 8.8 Nm, LB: −23.6 ± 9.7 Nm) compared to smaller-gap boosters (HB: −12.6 ± 4.4 Nm, LB/Low: −12.4 ± 7.2 Nm) for the LODC and Q10. Peak axial torso rotations were also observed for larger-gap LB (38.6°) compared to smaller-gap LB boosters (23.8°), and the LODC experienced greater peak thoracic rotations on larger-gap boosters compared to smaller-gap boosters. These results suggest that ATDs on larger-gap boosters experienced greater torso rotation and lumbar MZ due to lack of initial contact between the shoulder belt and inferior torso. No ATDs experienced complete shoulder belt slip-off; however, larger-gap boosters displayed more visual evidence of outboard shoulder belt positioning at the time of peak forward head excursion. This study provides a novel investigation on the role of initial belt fit and belt gap metrics on the dynamic response of booster-seated ATDs in frontal oblique impacts. Larger-gap boosters allowed the torso to undergo greater axial rotation before restraint was provided by the shoulder belt to the lower torso. Increased shoulder rotations may indicate greater propensity for shoulder belt slip-off in more severe crashes, in oblique maneuvers, or with variations in initial occupant posture. These results suggest the importance of continued evaluation of the implications of initial belt gap provided by boosters and the importance of evaluating lumbar FY and MZ and useful metrics for discrimination of differences in ATD response across booster designs.

description: In frontal crashes belt-positioning boosters (BPB) may prevent submarining when the seatback is reclined. It is unclear if the BPB can also mitigate injuries in far-side lateral-oblique crashes in reclined conditions, where current restraints are less effective in reducing lateral excursion. This study aimed to understand reclined child injury risk during lateral-oblique impacts, with and without a booster seat, by using the Large Omni-Directional Child (LODC) test device. The LODC was tested in nine lateral-oblique impact (80° from frontal) sled tests (target 31.3 km/h, duration 58 ms maximum, peak acceleration 21 g). Three seatback angles (25°, 45°, and 60°) with and without the BPB were compared on a production passenger seat with an integrated seatbelt. The LODC moved toward the buckle side during the far-side lateral-oblique impact. Abdominal pressure (left and right), seatbelt loads, anterior superioriliac spine (ASIS) forces, and pelvis lateral rotation were examined. The LODC head and knee excursions were extracted from a 3D-motion capture system. In the reclined noBPB condition, peak abdominal pressures on the buckle side reached up to 186 kPa and the ASIS forces demonstrated an early (∼ 50 ms) peak and a subsequent drop in the reclined noBPB conditions, suggesting that the belt slid into the abdomen. With the BPB, peak pelvis lateral rotation was greater than in the noBPB conditions but decreased with increasing reclined seatback angles (BPB: 31° to 36.5° vs no-BPB: −5° to −4.6°). Peak lap belt forces were greater in the reclined noBPB conditions (4.8-4.9 kN) compared to all conditions with the BPB (2.9-3.2 kN). The greatest lateral head excursion was observed in the BPB 25° condition (895 mm) and the lowest in the noBPB 45° condition (748 mm). The BPB may prevent the lap belt intrusion into the abdomen in reclined configurations in far side lateral-oblique impacts. The greater pelvis lateral rotation and head displacement with the BPB may lead to contact with other rear-seated occupants and/or vehicle structures, although motion decreased with the BPB as the reclined seatback angle increased. This suggests that reclined seats may help reduce BPB-seated children’s lateral excursion in far-side lateral-oblique impacts.

description: Currently, pedestrians’ road-crossing decisions depend on the traffic at the crossing point, crossing opportunities, and circumstantial elements. Longer wait times on the curb and time pressure raise the number of traffic violations among pedestrians. The era of fully autonomous vehicles (FAVs) promises new interactions. External Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs) aim to increase the understanding of FAVs’ intentions and will influence pedestrians’ intent to cross. Yet, how pedestrian behaviors will change in the FAV era remains unclear. Further, there are no good metrics for evaluating the intricate interaction of crossing-related factors. In a laboratory study, sixty participants observed crossing scenarios of a typical one-lane road with 10–12 FAVs driving along, two possible eHMI messages (“Cross!”/“Stop!”), and varying crossing opportunities (safe, risky, and unsafe). Participants had to indicate when they intended to cross the road using a designated button. Half of the participants were induced to feel time pressure. We developed index scores to convey the complexity of such crossing situations from the perspective of a pedestrian and used them to analyze the experimental data. In total, 48% of participants’ indications were to cross in safe crossing opportunities, 34% risky, and 18% unsafe; 69% were made when the eHMI proposition was “Cross!” and 31% for “Stop!”. High, significant, and negative correlations were found for compatible responses, e.g., with a safe crossing gap and an eHMI sign to “Cross!”. The opposite was true for incompatibility, e.g., a safe crossing gap and an eHMI sign to “Stop!” or an unsafe crossing gap and an eHMI sign to “Cross!”. The time pressure group’s median times to cross were shorter, making riskier decisions. Our findings reflect a tendency to comply with the eHMI. In more complex scenarios where the crossing opportunity was uncertain or waiting times were longer, we observed that pedestrians were more inclined to follow the eHMI’s guidance to cross. These findings suggest that pedestrians may be more likely to follow the eHMI’s suggestion to cross than their self-skill, especially under time pressure. Our indices and metrics reflect the intricate interaction aspects of pedestrian behavior with eHMIs.

description: In 2021; half of crash fatalities occurred at night when some road users, like pedestrians, are particularly vulnerable. Automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems can avoid or mitigate collisions by automatically applying the brakes, but their performance may be hindered in low lighting. The purpose of this study was to estimate the proportion of real-world crashes where headlights could provide enough visibility for the driver or AEB system to detect and avoid the collision. This study used IIHS headlight testing data and Crash Report Sampling System crash data from 2016 to 2021. The median 5-lux visibility distance was calculated for each IIHS headlight rating: good, acceptable, marginal, and poor. For three response profiles, a typical human driver, a fast human driver, and a camera-based AEB system, the maximum travel speed in which a vehicle could come to a complete stop within the 5-lux distance was computed. The real-world crash coverage of each headlight system and response profile was defined as the proportion of crashes that occurred on dark, unlit roads with a speed limit below the estimated maximum travel speed, where the vehicle could stop within the visibility distance. The median low-beam visibility distance for poor-rated headlights was 68.2 m and for good-rated headlights was 103.1 m on the right side of straight roads. The typical human driver could have enough time to detect and avoid 46.2% of nighttime pedestrian crashes with poor-rated headlights and 70.1% with good-rated headlights. The visibility distance greatly increases with high beams and would allow the typical human driver to detect and avoid over 90% of nighttime crashes. Good-rated and acceptable-rated headlights allow AEB systems to theoretically have enough visibility distance to avoid nearly every nighttime crash. Vehicles with good- or acceptable-rated headlights and active high beams are theoretically capable of providing sufficient light for speeds up to 165.8 km/h (103 mph), even covering most speeding vehicles. Future simulations of AEB systems on vehicles equipped with good- or acceptable-rated headlights and automatic high beams may not need to consider headlight visibility.

description: In 2022; South Korea had 3.3 million daily bicycle users and around 13,000 crashes with 190 fatalities annually. While helmets are known to prevent head injuries, research on their effectiveness in preventing fatalities is lacking. This study explores factors influencing bicycle-related fatalities and examines if helmets reduce the risk of death in road traffic incidents. This case-control study used data from the Emergency Department-based Injury In-depth Surveillance (EDIIS) from 2011 to 2021; analyzing 76,983 bicycle injury cases. Of these, 282 fatalities were identified as the case group, and 1,112 controls were randomly selected based on gender, age, and year of visit. The study examined risk factors for bicycle fatalities and used conditional logistic regression to assess the impact of helmet use on traumatic brain injury and in-hospital mortality. In this study of 1,394 patients (282 cases and 1,112 controls), 11.1% were wearing helmets at the time of the crash. The majority of cases involved males (88%) and individuals aged 60-79 years (58.6%). Cases were more likely to occur between 00:00-06:00 and 18:00-00:00 and involved a higher proportion of non-helmeted riders (96.1% vs. 87.1%). Bicycle fatalities were more often due to collisions with automobiles (67.7%), while non-fatal injuries were mainly from crashes without a collision (45.8%). Head injuries were common in both groups, but traumatic brain injury (TBI) was significantly higher among cases (41.5% vs. 11.9%). Key factors associated with ED mortality included the time of injury, alcohol use, crashes on national highways, no helmet use, and collisions with automobiles. Helmet use was associated with a non-significant 35% lower risk of TBI and a significant 63% lower risk of ED mortality. Key risk factors for fatal bicycle injuries included being aged 60-79, male, involved in nighttime crashes, collisions with automobiles, not wearing a helmet, and sustaining a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Helmet use was linked to lower rates of TBIs and reduced mortality. To decrease bicycle-related deaths, stronger legal regulations, educational efforts, and improved infrastructure are essential, along with further interventions and research to effectively tackle these issues.

description: Automatic emergency braking systems with pedestrian detection (PAEB) are effective at preventing pedestrian crashes, but the safety benefits are not observed at night. This study used the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) PAEB test data to characterize PAEB responses in different lighting conditions and for different rated systems. Data from 6,919 IIHS PAEB tests were retrieved from IIHS databases. Invalid trials, trials without AEB, and trials with outliers were removed leaving 5,894 trials from 212 model year 2018 to 2023 vehicles for analysis. PAEB responses were characterized by computing the time-to-collision (TTC) of forward collision warning (FCW) and AEB; brake threat number (BTN); mean deceleration; maximum deceleration; and maximum jerk. A linear mixed-effects model was used to predict each dependent measure with scenario (crossing adult, stationary adult), speed, rating (superior, basic/advanced), lighting (day, night with high beams, night with low beams), and their interactions. Vehicle was included as a random effect. A Bonferroni correction was applied to maintain a family-wise type-1 error rate of 0.05 across 138 total hypothesis tests. PAEB system warnings were later and automatic braking occurred later as speed increased at night with low beams but changed little at night with high beams and during the day (p < 0.0004). BTN increased more rapidly as speed increased at night with low beams compared with high beams and during the day (p < 0.0004). Based on the BTN model, on average, PAEB systems can brake to avoid the adult mannequin (BTN < 1) when closing speed is less than 67 km/h during the day and at night with high beams but only when closing speed is less than 49 km/h at night with low beams. Superior-rated PAEB systems warned and braked earlier compared with basic/advanced-rated systems (p < 0.0004). Increased lighting from high beams made nighttime performance resemble daytime performance in controlled testing. Increasing output from vehicle low beams, increasing the use of high beams, and enhancing overhead lighting around crosswalks and pedestrian areas are all methods for increasing lighting, improving pedestrian conspicuity, and enhancing PAEB performance to prevent pedestrian crashes.

description: To contextually examine facilitators of young driver decisions to ride with an impaired driver (RWI) or drive while impaired (DWI). Data were from the NIH’s NEXT Generation Health Study (NEXT), a 7-year longitudinal nationally representative study with a U.S. probability cohort of 10th graders starting in 2009–2010. Using a multistage sequential explanatory mixed methods approach, we conducted latent class analysis (n = 2,783) to identify RWI/DWI trajectories from adolescence to young adulthood (Stage-1). We then conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with purposively sampled young adults (N = 105, 26.30 ± 0.43 y/o) from four identified RWI/DWI trajectory classes (Stage-2): 31 Abstainers (consistently low probability), 33 Escalators (low-to-high probability), 14 Decliners (high-to-low probability), and 27 Persisters (consistently high probability). In Stage-2, the qualitative interview guide was informed by Stage-1 findings and Ecodevelopmental Theory. Using directed content analysis, we applied inductive and deductive theory-grounded codes to interview transcripts. With data immersion, reflexivity, and team dialogue, we derived themes from the code, “Facilitators of RWI and/or DWI”. Demographics and validated measures of resiliency, health-related quality of life, Timeline Follow Back for alcohol and marijuana, and recent engagement in RWI/DWI were collected during the interviews. Based on the interview transcripts, five themes emerged around RWI/DWI facilitators during and after high school: (1) beliefs about alcohol/drug effects; (2) trust of others; (3) trust of self; (4) parental disapproval; and (5) transportation factors. Participants who RWI confidently placed their trust in their assessment of the driver’s impairment and their own in the context of close relationships. Those who DWI described desire to maintain simple/easy vehicle access while avoiding tickets/towing. The joint display of the quantitative and qualitative data is presented. Notable misperceptions exist about how alcohol/drugs impact driving in the RWI/DWI context, particularly regarding the subtle signs of impairment. Youth commonly relied on their own assessment of impairment before driving themselves or riding with a potentially impaired driver, sometimes to avoid parental disapproval. Some engage in RWI/DWI to avoid discord with parents. DWI may relate to needing easy/immediate vehicle access. Pragmatic remedy considerations could include educating youth and young drivers about impairment, enhancing safe public transportation, and expanding ride-share programing.

description: This article examines the safety performance of the Waymo Driver, an SAE level 4 automated driving system (ADS) used in a rider-only (RO) ride-hailing application without a human driver, either in the vehicle or remotely. ADS crash data were derived from NHTSA’s Standing General Order (SGO) reporting over 7.14 million RO miles through the end of October 2023 in Phoenix, Arizona, San Francisco, California, and Los Angeles, California, and compared to human benchmarks from the literature. When considering all locations together, the any injury reported crashed vehicle rate was 0.6 incidents per million miles (IPMM) for the ADS vs. 2.80 IPMM for the human benchmark, an 80% reduction or a human crash rate that is 5 times higher than the ADS rate. Police-reported crashed vehicle rates for all locations together were 2.1 IPMM for the ADS vs. 4.68 IPMM for the human benchmark, a 55% reduction or a human crash rate that was 2.2 times higher than the ADS rate. Police-reported crashed vehicle rate reductions for the ADS were statistically significant when compared in San Francisco and Phoenix, as well as combined across all locations and the any-injury-reported reductions were statistically significant in San Francisco and in all locations. The any property damage or injury comparison had statistically significant decreases in 3 comparisons but also nonsignificant results in 3 other benchmarks. When excluding ADS crashes with a delta-V less than 1 mph (a measure of sensitivity to lower reporting threshold), about half of the ADS collisions were excluded, resulting in comparisons that showed a large statistically significant reduction in all comparisons except for one comparison from San Francisco. The statistically significant reductions in police-reported and any injury reported crash rates indicate a promising positive safety impact of ADS. The direction and significance of comparisons in the any property damage or injury outcome group are inconclusive due to difficulties in estimating a matching human benchmark. More research is needed on defining any property damage or injury benchmarks with clear lower reporting thresholds to reduce the systematic uncertainty in the benchmark rates. Together, these crash rate results contribute to the continuous growth in confidence, together with other methodologies, in a safety case approach.

description: The objective of this study is to examine the effects of seatback angle, seat rotation, and impact speed on occupant kinematics and injury risk in highly automated vehicles. The study utilized the Global Human Body Models Consortium midsize male (M50-OS+B) simplified occupant model in a simplified vehicle model (SVM) to simulate frontal crashes. The M50-OS+B model was gravity-settled and belted into the driver and left rear passenger seat. To investigate the effects of seatback angle, seat rotation, and impact speed on occupant kinematics and injury risk in frontal crashes, a design of experiments (DOE) was conducted. The DOE incorporated four seatback angles (13°, 23°, 45°, and 57.5° about vertical), four seat rotation angles (0°, 25°, 45°, and 90°), three impact speeds (25, 35, and 45 kph), and four frontal crash type configurations. All four seatback angles were used with 0° seat rotation, whereas 13° seatback angle was used with the remaining seat rotation configurations because of cabin fit considerations. Injury risks were estimated for the head, neck, shoulder, thorax, pelvis, and lower extremities for both occupants for each simulation (n=588). Statistically significant differences between all the groups within each independent variable category were observed based on the analysis of variance. HIC-based head injury risk and chest injury risk decreased and femur force for the driver and tibia force for the passenger increased with an increase in seatback angles. The head injury risk increased with seat rotation. All the injury risks increased with an increase in impact speed. The driver airbag was able to safeguard the driver from head injuries for all seat rotations except at 90° of seat rotation. This is the first vehicle modeling study that collectively looked at the effects of seatback angle, seat rotation, and impact speed along with the interaction of occupants on the risk of injury in frontal crashes. The rear passenger experienced higher seatbelt loads than the driver. More reclined seats decreased head and chest injury risk, but increased driver femur injury risk and rear passenger tibia injury risk. Results underscore the necessity for additional anti-submarining mechanisms and driver airbag designs adapted for the anticipated occupant positions.

description: The first objective was to evaluate the effect of using less censored (i.e., exact and interval-censored) data on thoracic injury risk curves and the resulting injury probabilities. The second objective was to generate new injury risk curves to predict Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) 3+ rib fractures based on chest deflection. Two data sets consisting of postmortem human surrogate (PMHS) tests with multipoint chest deflection measurements were compiled: A less censored data set consisting of exact and interval-censored data and a doubly censored data set consisting of left- and right-censored data. Chest deflection data from both data sets were processed in a consistent manner to calculate the maximum deflections at different locations across the chest. Survival analysis methods were used to generate nonparametric and parametric injury risk curves for serious skeletal injury. The total sample sizes and proportions of less censored data used to generate the risk curves were varied for each curve to evaluate the effects of sample size and less censored data on risk curve shape and predicted injury thresholds. Increasing the proportion of less censored data resulted in steeper injury risk curves and a higher predicted risk for a given amount of deflection. Differences in injury risk were more pronounced in the upper half of the injury risk curves. Introducing less censored data also produced narrower confidence intervals. At a total sample size of 79, increasing the percentage of less censored data from 0 to 30 had minimal effect on the shape of the risk curve. Doubly censored chest deflection data have historically been used to generate thoracic injury risk curves for frontal motor vehicle crash events. This study found that incorporating less censored data into thoracic injury risk curves meaningfully affected the shape of the injury risk curves and their resulting injury risk predictions. All of the injury risk curves generated in the study predicted a lower threshold for serious rib fracture injury compared to previously developed injury risks curves that are currently in use in the field. Based on the results of this study, adding less censored data to injury risk curves should be strongly considered to improve thoracic injury risk curve prediction and confidence, especially for smaller sample sizes.
