Description

Technical Field

[0002] Pedestrian protection using impactors (such as rigid leg-type TRL, advanced leg-type impactor APLI, etc.) is very important in automobile safety testing, but they currently have some limitations: when conducting integrated evaluations, first, there are limitations in the biomechanical simulation of the impactor. The impactors are designed to simulate the biomechanical behavior of pedestrians, but they cannot fully replicate the complex responses of pedestrians in actual collision events. The dynamic interaction of pedestrians' bones, muscles, and soft tissues may react differently in real situations than what the impactor shows. Secondly, there are limitations in test conditions. Impactor tests are usually conducted in a controlled environment, which may not fully simulate various complex collision situations in the real world, such as impacts at different angles and collisions at different speeds.

[0037] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0038] In the following introduction, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. The following introduction provides multiple embodiments of the present application, and different embodiments can be replaced or combined, so the present application can also be considered to include all possible combinations of the same and / or different embodiments recorded. Therefore, if one embodiment includes features A, B, and C, and another embodiment includes features B and D, then the present application should also be considered to include embodiments containing one or more of all other possible combinations of A, B, C, and D, although the embodiment may not be clearly recorded in the following text.

In addition, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.

[0040] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 : is a flow chart of a virtual testing method for pedestrian protection of an integrated active and passive safety vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. In an embodiment of the present application, the method includes:

[0041] S101, obtaining vehicle information of a vehicle to be tested, constructing a vehicle dynamics model based on the vehicle information, and constructing a road environment model.

[0042] The vehicle information includes vehicle type, structural parameters, front and rear suspension parameters, tire parameters, automatic emergency braking system algorithm, transmission system parameters and steering system parameters, and the road environment model includes at least two scenarios of different collision conditions.

[0043] The execution entity of this application can be a cloud server.

[0044] In the embodiment of this specification, for the vehicle to be tested that needs to be subjected to a virtual evaluation of pedestrian protection, in order to determine its collision speed and pitch angle and other information when a collision occurs for subsequent simulation of the collision process between pedestrians and vehicles, the vehicle information of the vehicle to be tested will be obtained first, and the vehicle dynamics model will be constructed in the Carsim simulation software. At the same time, a road environment model representing different collision scenarios will be constructed in the Prescan software according to different pre-set collision conditions.

[0045] In one possible implementation manner, the obtaining of vehicle information of the vehicle to be tested includes:

[0046] Detect the automatic emergency braking system of the vehicle under test;

[0047] When the automatic emergency braking system is not detected, performing a traditional passive safety test process;

[0048] When the automatic emergency braking system is detected, vehicle information of the vehicle to be tested is obtained.

[0049] In the embodiments of this specification, only vehicles with automatic emergency braking systems (Automatic Emergency Braking, AEB) can perform active safety tests. Therefore, if you want to perform the active and passive combined safety test process of this application, you must first determine whether the vehicle has an AEB system. The cloud server will directly obtain the vehicle's status data to detect whether the vehicle to be tested has an automatic emergency braking system based on the status data. If the vehicle to be tested has an automatic emergency braking system, it will obtain the corresponding vehicle information for subsequent processing. If the vehicle to be tested does not have an automatic emergency braking system, it is considered that the active and passive safety test integration test process of this application cannot be performed, and the traditional passive safety test process will be executed.

[0050] In one embodiment, the structural parameters include the distance between the center of mass of the sprung mass and the front axle, the height of the center of mass of the sprung mass, the wheelbase, the lateral offset of the center of mass, the sprung mass, the vehicle height and the vehicle width.

[0051] In the embodiments of this specification, the vehicle types mainly include sedans, SUVs, MPVs, coupes, etc. The structural parameters include the distance L between the center of mass of the sprung mass and the front axle MFA , the height of the center of mass of the sprung mass H M 、Wheelbase L WB , lateral displacement of center of mass L COG , sprung mass M S , vehicle height H and vehicle width B. The automatic emergency braking system algorithm, transmission system parameters and steering system parameters can be directly extracted from the automatic emergency braking system.

[0052] In one embodiment, the collision conditions include an adult longitudinal rear-end collision 25% condition, an adult proximal crossing 25% condition, an adult distal crossing 50% condition with obstruction, a child proximal crossing unilateral 50% condition and a child proximal crossing bilateral 50% condition.

[0053] In the embodiments of this specification, the Car to Pedestrian Longitudinal Approach-25% overlap (CPLA-25) simulates the situation when an adult is walking longitudinally in front of the vehicle, where the collision surface of the vehicle and the pedestrian overlaps by only 25%. This partially overlapping scenario increases the difficulty of detecting pedestrians and avoiding or mitigating collisions. The Car to Pedestrian Near-side Approach-25% overlap (CPNA-25) simulates an adult crossing the road quickly from one side (near side) of the vehicle, and has a 25% contact area with the front of the vehicle. This test is designed to evaluate the vehicle's ability to respond to pedestrians who suddenly appear. The Car to Pedestrian Far-side Obstructed Approach-50% overlap (CPFOA-50) simulates an adult crossing the road from the far side of the vehicle, and there are obstacles blocking the driver's line of sight until the pedestrian has a 50% contact area with the front of the vehicle. The test focuses on whether the vehicle can identify the partially obscured pedestrian and take timely measures. The Car to Pedestrian Near-side Single-side Obscured Crossing-50% overlap (CPNSOC-50) simulates a child crossing the road from one side (near side) of the vehicle, and there is a single-side object (such as a parked car) blocking the pedestrian, resulting in a 50% contact area between the pedestrian and the front of the vehicle. This situation tests the AEB system's ability to identify and respond to small targets and obstructed vision. The Car to Pedestrian Near-side Double-side Obscured Crossing-50% overlap (CPNDOC-50) simulates objects blocking the line of sight on both sides, which also causes a 50% contact area between the pedestrian and the front of the vehicle. This test is more complex because the AEB system is required to identify and respond with more limited information. The above five conditions can represent the road environment in different actual situations, so that the test data under different road environments can be determined separately.

[0054] S102: Determine a vehicle collision speed and a vehicle pitch angle of the vehicle to be tested in different scenarios based on the road environment model and the vehicle dynamics model.

[0055] In the embodiment of this specification, the corresponding vehicle initial speed V is input according to the test requirements in different scenarios. i and pedestrian speed VP , the road environment model and vehicle dynamics model can be jointly simulated through Carsim-Prescan-simulink, and the vehicle collision speed V and vehicle pitch angle θ of the vehicle under test in different scenarios can be obtained, and V and θ are input into the HyperMesh software to adjust the vehicle under test. Subsequently, the collision simulation will be directly performed with the vehicle under test in the HyperMesh software without the need for the road environment model and vehicle dynamics model. Among them, the vehicle pitch angle is the angle of rotation toward the front of the vehicle with the vehicle's center of mass M as the center.

[0056] S103: construct a pedestrian finite element model, and set lower limb load conditions and pedestrian speed for the pedestrian finite element model.

[0057] In the embodiments of this specification, a pedestrian finite element model will also be constructed to replace the impactor used in the traditional pedestrian protection evaluation. The pedestrian finite element model has very high accuracy and complexity. With the improvement of computing power, the pedestrian finite element model can contain more details, such as nonlinear characteristics and anisotropy of bones, muscles, ligaments, soft tissues, etc. In addition, multi-scale modeling can be performed so that the pedestrian finite element model can simultaneously consider biomechanical behaviors at different levels. Specifically, the pedestrian finite element model can select Total Human Model for Safety (THMUS), Chinese Signs Human Digital Model (AC-HUMs), Global Human Body Models Consortium (GHBMC), etc. After the pedestrian finite element model is constructed, the lower limb load condition and pedestrian speed will be set for it. As an example, the lower limb load condition can be that the lower limb is standing on one foot, the left leg is raised forward and the right leg is at an angle of 20 degrees. This gait is considered to be the most stringent load condition for the lower limb on the side of the initial collision with the vehicle, and the test effect is better. Other load conditions can also be selected in other embodiments. The pedestrian speed can be set to be the same as the pedestrian speed in the previous joint simulation under different scenarios, or it can be specially set according to the test requirements.

[0058] In one possible implementation, after constructing the pedestrian finite element model, the method further includes:

[0059] Based on the setting position of the impactor, the damage output is set in proportion to the leg area of ​​the pedestrian finite element model, and an acceleration sensor is set at the center of mass of the head of the pedestrian finite element model.

[0060] In the embodiments of this specification, after the pedestrian finite element model is constructed, damage output is established at the same position in proportion according to the position of the impactors such as APLI and TRL in the leg area, and the corresponding damage data function can select damage factor, failure index, cumulative damage model, fracture mechanics parameters, etc. At the same time, an acceleration sensor is also set at the center of mass of the head of the pedestrian finite element model to obtain the head injury criterion (HIC) later.

[0061] S104, performing collision simulation on the vehicle to be tested and the pedestrian finite element model to determine scenario scores and pedestrian collision data under different scenarios, and calculating the pedestrian protection test score of the vehicle to be tested according to the scenario scores and the pedestrian collision data.

[0062] The scenario score is determined based on the frequency of accidents, and the pedestrian collision data includes the maximum bending moment of the femur, the maximum bending moment of the tibia, the ligament elongation and the head injury index of the pedestrian's leg.

[0063] In the embodiment of this specification, a collision simulation is performed on the finite element model of the vehicle to be tested and the pedestrian in the HyperMesh software to obtain the maximum bending moment M of the femur of the pedestrian leg. FMAX 、Maximum bending moment of tibia M TMAX , ligament elongation L MCL and head injury index HIC. At the same time, the frequency of accidents in each scenario will be counted separately, and the scenario scores of different scenarios will be set according to the frequencies. As an example, the scenario score can be a total score of all scenarios set in advance, and the frequency ratio between the scenarios is calculated, and then the score is assigned to each scene according to the total score and the frequency ratio. The scene score can also be calculated in a preset score calculation function based on the pedestrian collision data. Finally, the pedestrian protection test score can be obtained by calculating the weighted sum and average of the scores of each scenario. The high or low score of the pedestrian protection test can more accurately characterize the pedestrian injury of the pedestrian in the collision test, and the effect of the pedestrian protection virtual test is better.

[0064] In one possible implementation, the determining of scenario scores and pedestrian collision data in different scenarios, and calculating the pedestrian protection test score of the vehicle to be tested according to the scenario scores and pedestrian collision data, includes:

[0065] Obtaining pedestrian collision data according to the collision simulation results, setting a part score for each human body part according to a preset part importance, and calculating an injury risk score for each human body part based on the pedestrian collision data;

[0066] The scenario score of each scenario is calculated according to the injury risk score and the location score, and the pedestrian protection test score of the vehicle to be tested is calculated according to each scenario score.

[0067] In the embodiments of this specification, the importance of a part can be represented by the score ratio between the parts set according to the importance. The cloud server can pre-set the total score of all parts and set the part score of each human body part according to the score ratio. It is assumed that the part scores corresponding to the head, femur, tibia, and ligament are Z1, Z2, Z3, and Z4 respectively. Similarly, the injury risk score can be set for each human body part according to the size of each pedestrian collision data. It is assumed that the injury risk scores corresponding to the head, femur, tibia, and ligament are S1, Z2, Z3, and Z4 respectively. H , S F , S T , S L The scenario score of each scenario can be calculated based on the injury risk score and the location score. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0068]

[0069] Finally, the final pedestrian protection test score of the vehicle to be tested will be calculated based on the scores of each scenario. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] In one possible implementation, the calculating the injury risk score of each body part based on the pedestrian collision data includes:

[0072] The injury index risk function of each human body part is obtained, and the pedestrian collision data is calculated based on the injury index risk function to obtain the injury risk score of each human body part.

[0073] In the embodiments of the present specification, an injury index risk function corresponding to each personal part is pre-set, and the function value of the injury index risk function can be calculated according to the pedestrian collision data. The function value is the injury risk score of each body part.

[0074] Among them, the injury risk function f corresponding to the injury risk score of the head is h (x) is:

[0075]

[0076] The injury index risk function f corresponding to the thigh injury risk score F (x) is:

[0077]

[0078] Where I is the moment of inertia of the femoral section, c is the maximum distance to the neutral axis, and M is the maximum bending moment of the femur of the pedestrian’s leg. FMAX .

[0079] The injury risk function f corresponding to the injury risk score of the calf T (x) is:

[0080] f T (x)=1-exp[-exp(5.77458×In(M)-34.51175]

[0081] Where M is the maximum bending moment of the tibia TMAX .

[0082] The injury index risk function f1(x) corresponding to the ligament injury risk score is:

[0083]

[0084] Where L is the ligament elongation L MCL , A1, A2, B1 and B2 are all constants.

[0085] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 2 , the virtual test device for pedestrian protection with integrated active and passive safety of automobile provided in the embodiment of the present application is introduced in detail.
