A monopost seat is a novel, lightweight seat developed to utilize most of the interior space of vehicles. The space under the seat can be utilized by inserting a monopost columnar structure between a monopost seat rail and the floorboard. This design increases the perceived spaciousness of the vehicle and imparts passengers with a higher degree of freedom, because the seats can be adjusted more easily than standard seats. Meeting these requirements will require the seats to be sufficiently strong and sturdy in order to maintain passenger safety. Compared to traditional seats, it is more likely that a monopost seat will shift under the mass of the passenger, and these seats are more vulnerable to external vehicle collisions. Passenger safety is further compromised if an operational function is added. Therefore, further research on monopost seats is required. This study performed quasi-static and dynamic simulations to determine if the attachment of monopost seats to a vehicle meets international safety requirements in collision events. With a focus on clarifying the dynamic simulation process, the outcomes of quasi-static simulations were compared with the results obtained from dynamic simulations.
