Rollover crashes have been acknowledged as one of the most dangerous forms of passenger vehicle crashes (NHTSA, 2006b). The detailed review of the research literature presented in Chapter 2 and cited throughout this thesis, has identified rollover to be a significant social issue in both the US and Australia due to the high proportion of road fatalities and serious injuries this crash mode accounts for. These findings are evidence of an inherent lack of adequate rollover crashworthiness design in modern day vehicles, which in turn has led to a low degree of occupant protection and the high serious injury and fatality rates observed in these crashes.The literature review also identified that a significant number of injuries result from occupants being ejected. While researchers have demonstrated a good understanding of how to prevent such ejections, and therefore the resulting injuries, there remains conflict and confusion when research focus turns to the serious and fatal injuries of contained occupants, particularly when considering spinal neck injuries.This conflict is primarily a result of a series of differing findings of researchers regarding the cause of these injuries. These conflicting findings result from the development of two seemingly contradictory theories which attempt to explain how spinal neck injury is inflicted on contained occupants during rollovers. This has in turn confused opinions on the best method to improve the rollover crashworthiness design of vehicles for close to forty years. As a result, the number and proportion of rollover fatalities has remained high in Australia, and in the US has increased from the mid-1980s to today.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, “of the nearly 9.1 million passenger car, SUV, pickup and van crashes in 2010, only 2.1% involved a rollover. However, rollovers accounted for nearly 35% of all deaths from passenger vehicle crashes. In 2010 alone, more than 7,600 people died in rollover crashes.” Rollover accidents continue to be a leading contributor of vehicle deaths. While this continues to be true, it is pertinent to understand the entire crash process. Each stage of the accident provides valuable insight into the application of reconstruction methodologies. Rollover Accident Reconstruction focuses on tripped, single vehicle rollover crashes that terminate without striking a fixed object. Topics featured in this book include: • Analysis methods through various accident phases, including advanced simulation • Vehicle event data recorder usage • Occupant ejection during rollover crash The goal of this title is to break down the various phases of a rollover crash to analyze each stage for use in the reconstruction process - to the greater understanding of crash analysts, consultants and safety engineers alike.

Rollover crashes can have serious consequences. In 2004, 33% of passenger vehicle occupant fatalities were in vehicles that rolled over. This report analyzes data related to passenger vehicle rollovers, including rollover propensity and injury outcomes. The report uses the Fatality Analysis Reporting System and National Automotive Sampling System General Estimates System databases to tabulate data on passenger vehicles and their occupants by a variety of variables and performs logistic analysis of the data. Tabulations focus on years 1994, 2003, and 2004; logistic analysis pools data for years 2000 through 2004. We specifically analyze factors that (a) were associated with vehicle rollovers in single-vehicle crashes of passenger vehicles; and (b) were associated with ejection status and varying degrees of injury severity of occupants of passenger vehicles that rolled over in single-vehicle crashes. Among other things, we also analyze the relationship between various anthropomorphic characteristics, such as the Body Mass Index, and seat belt effectiveness for drivers of passenger vehicles that were in single-vehicle rollovers. This report may be useful to other researchers and may provide a starting point for further analysis of vehicle rollovers and injury outcomes.

This technical report provides descriptive characteristics on vehicles that have rolled over and on injuries to occupants of these vehicles. The data is provided by categories that are thought to be of interest to the customers of NHTSA's National Center for Statistics and Analysis (NCSA), both internal and external. In particular, the authors focus on passenger vehicles that were in single-vehicle crashes and rollovers, and on injuries of occupants of passenger vehicles that were in single-vehicle rollovers.

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.
