[car home? Industry]? Recently, Toyota Motor Corporation announced that it will release the virtual human model THUMS(Total? Human? Model? for? Safety）。 The purpose of doing this is to let more automobile manufacturing-related enterprises use THUMS to develop safer products and make contributions to future automobile development. In 2, Toyota and Toyota Central Research Institute jointly developed the virtual human model "THUMS". This is the first model in the world that can restore and analyze the whole body injury caused by vehicle collision. In 219, THUMS launched the latest Version6, which made the virtual model have bones, brains, internal organs and muscles; In addition, different options such as gender, age and physique have been added. In the previous automobile safety experiments, most dummy models with the same weight were used. In contrast, THUMS can restore the shape and strength of human body more accurately, and can analyze the injury caused by collision in more detail. At the same time, based on the simulated collision experiments in different scenes on the computer, THUMS can greatly reduce the time and economic cost required for collision experiments.
"Pedestrian and Driver Model" At present, THUMS has been used by more than 1 automobiles, parts companies, universities and research institutions at home and abroad, mainly aiming at the adjustment and innovation of seat belts, airbags, avoiding pedestrian accidents, etc., in order to protect people as much as possible when various traffic accidents occur. For the public, it is an open attitude for Toyota to disclose THUMS for free. I hope that users in the industry can use and improve THUMS, and finally make safer products to help the future development of automobiles. (Text/car home? Weng Meng)
