✦ Synopsis
Generally speaking, the small car is less safe than the standard car, so more study of the conditions for safety in a small car is needed. We use a scale model, because the experiment is simple and inexpensive. Deceleration of the car and occupant in the small car were obtained by the scale model during frontal barrier collision and car-to-car collision. The results showed good agreement with those of an actual car. In this study, the conditions for safety of the occupant in the small car was investigated.
