Adaptive airbag system for increased evacuation safety

This short communication is aimed at indication of a significant problem to be solved by researchers working in the field engineering structures. The contribution concerns very important application rescue cushion, which an airbag system devoted impact mitigation appearing during evacuation people from heights. Although, similar principle their operation, car airbags have been thoroughly tested, cushions not received sufficient attention. It should emphasized that performance actually operated devices far and even fatal accidents occur. authors identified initiated study, includes numerical simulation experimental validation absorption process, as well elaboration suitable adaptive solution.
