Abstract

The objective of this project has been to modify baseline data sets developed for use with the Calspan three-dimensional crash victim simulation to a form compatible with the MVMA two dimensional dynamic occupant/pedestrian simulation. The report describes the baseline vehicle geometry in Part 2. The occupant and pedestrian along with their contact interactions with the vehicle are described in Parts 3 and 4. The baseline input data sets and a sampling of the resulting computer program output are given in Part 5.
