There are more and more motorcycles on the roads. This can be seen, for example, on the basis of statistical data from the Central Statistical Office, where newly registered twowheelers are presented. Based on the data, it can be seen that there are more and more newly registered motorcycles every year and that there are many road accidents involving two-wheelers. According to data provided by the WHO, as many as 28% of fatalities in road accidents are motorcycle riders [11]. The article below reviews the literature on crash tests of motorcycles and test dummies. Unfortunately, it should be noted that this topic is not widely discussed in scientific research. Most of the works related to motorcycle crash tests concern safety tests of cash registers. On the other hand, usually in the literature on the subject you can find publications presenting simulations of mapping a specific accident involving a motorcyclist. The paper presents the most important standard regulating the manner of conducting crash tests of motorcycles. The main purpose of the article is assessment of the problem of motorcycle safety and an analysis of the state of knowledge in the area of motorcycle safety research in crash tests. The paper presents types of two-wheelers crash tests and stands used to test motorcycles. In addition, the authors in the work drew attention to the type of dummies used for crash tests involving motorcycles. Differences between these dummy and other dummies used in crash tests are also described. The article discusses the literature and describes research related to crash tests. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
