Numerical analysis of a lightarmoured vehicular personnel carrier loaded with a mine oried explosion on a human transported in it

The armedforces involvement in stabilization operations conducted either in Europe (Kosovo) or in Africa (Iraq) or in Asia (Afghanistan) caused uncovering of weak points of the used equipment which was not constructed for the purpose of partisan war. This fact resulted in equipment modernisation in the form of additional armouring and protection against mines and improvised explosive devise as well as in NATO adopting the standards determining the protection level assuring by the given vehicle. The most popular military standard in the scope of ballistic protection against the pressure wave coming from a mine or improvised explosive device detonation is standard NATO -STANAG 4569. This standard determines to a great degree also the charge size and position. Civil solutions are based not on the evaluation of the vehicle destruction level but on the evaluation of some parameters determining the injuries of the human moving in a vehicle which had an accident. These parameters will be used to evaluate the injuries of the human moving in a lightarmoured vehicular personnel carrier which is subjected to the influence of wave pressure wave coming from the detonation of a mine or improvised explosive device. The finite elements model of a dummy Hybrid III 95% Male and Ls-Dyna software will be used for this purpose. There will be considered the complex model in which there is not only a human and vehicle model but also a charge, air and ground.
