Moose-vehicle collisions often cause broken glass, deformed roofs, and dented hoods, which makes the driving space invaded to a large extent and seriously threatens the life safety of occupants, and is an essential factor threatening traffic safety. However, there is currently a lack of moose numerical models that can be used to study moose-vehicle collision response. Based on actual body size data, this paper developed a moose numerical model that could be used for vehicle collision simulation of moose using MADYMO software, which could realize the representation of different physical signs of moose by the scaling method. The accident reconstruction was performed based on the video information of the Jeep-moose collision accident and the Volvo-moose dummy collision test. Comparing the kinematic response posture of the moose in the accident and simulation, the moose model and the scaling method were validated. This model is significant for the study of moose-vehicle collision response and the guidance of vehicle safety design.
