This literature review focuses on human factors issues affecting the safe use of cutaway buses (i.e., a bus body carried by a van or truck chassis) by older adults. Cutaway buses are often used as shuttles for assisted living facilities, in demand–

The State of Florida acquires over 300 cutaway buses every year. The increasing popularity of such buses raised concerns about passenger safety and overall crashworthiness of this transportation mode. An extensive research program was initiated at Cr

Existing crashworthiness standards in the United States are focused primarily on passenger cars and school buses, while paratransit buses are not required to meet these codes. The main objective of this research was to develop a finite element (FE) m
