The study presented here concerns the identification of improved coach interior layouts, in particular the inline seating layout, during crash of railway vehicles, focusing the protection of its occupants. A railway accident is described by the primary collision, in which the vehicle is subjected to a sudden deceleration causing the unrestrained occupants to continue their original motion until the secondary collision, in which the railway passengers come into contact with some part of the vehicle or with other occupants.
