In order to research the injury of pedestrian collided with microbus windshield, the finite element model of pedestrian and windshield are established based on the characteristics of pedestrian collision with microbus windshield in traffic accident to simulate the collision process by ANSYS/LS-DYNA. In the condition of different impact velocities, HIC, TTI and stress intensity of pedestrian are studied in simulation test. The results illustrate that with the impact velocitys increasing the original impact energy, stress intensity, acceleration, HIC, and TTI increase. Also, the collision time is prolonged. Collision in head, the head of pedestrian would suffer serious injury with more than 29 km/h impact velocity. The chest would suffer serious injury with more than 25 km/h impact velocity in condition of colliding on chest.
