This paper is intended to find out the optimized restraint system for various crash conditions and to analyze the characteristics of those conditions numerically. 40km/h FF (Full Frontal crash), 56km/h FF and 64km/h ODB (Offset Deformable Barrier crash) conditions have been considered with 5th%ile female, 50th%ile male and 95th%ile male dummies on driver side. The vehicle lay out and crash pulses came from a compact passenger car. The restraint system was focused on the driver side airbag and seat belt. MADYMO 3D was used in this study for simulation.
