The above ratios show the necessity to consider carefully the role of the hood in pedestrian head safety. Redesigning the hood structure to improve pedestrian protection has recently received considerable attention by automobile manufacturers and industry institutes. However, there is a lack of research that considers methods of choosing the most effective thicknesses of hood skin and hood reinforcement with respect to pedestrian safety. The aim of these tests was to compare the general pedestrian friendliness of steel and aluminum, used as hood material. The tests were conducted on a car that is still available on the market with either a steel or aluminum hood, both having the same design. Mukesh C. Chaudhari | Tushar D.
