Crash protection for babies : TARU 2/74

The dynamic performance of devices that are intended to protect baby occupants of crashing automobiles is examined from an engineering point of view. Dynamic collision simulations were carried out with "baby" dummies restrained by each of three "baby" restraints that were readily available in Sydney. Further simulations were carried out on some experimental restraints. Strengths and weaknesses of the various restraints are explored and conclusions reached About the crash protection available to babies in New South Wales.\n\n**Note:** This resource was originally published on opengov.nsw.gov.au.

本文从工程视角考察了旨在保护碰撞汽车中婴儿乘员的装置的动态性能。研究人员使用在悉尼易获取的三种“婴儿”约束装置分别固定“婴儿”假人，开展了动态碰撞模拟；此外，还对若干实验性约束装置进行了模拟研究。本文探讨了各类约束装置的优劣，并就新南威尔士州婴儿可获得的碰撞保护得出结论。
