Abstract

THE PART 572 DUMMY AND THE APROD AND HSR1 SIDE IMPACT DUMMIES ARE TESTED IN IDENTICAL CAR TO CAR 90 DEGREE SIDE IMPACTS. EACH DUMMY IS, AS THE DRIVER IN THE TARGET CAR, SUBJECTED TO TESTS WITH DIFFERENT SIDE STIFFNESS. CONVENTIONAL ACCELEROMETER DATA FOR THE PART 572 DUMMY, CHEST DEFLECTION MEASUREMENTS IN THE APROD DUMMY AND DATA FROM THE 12 ACCELEROMETER THORAX IN THE HSR1 DUMMY ARE GIVEN AND DISCUSSED. THE INJURY CRITERIA OF THE SIDE IMPACT DUMMIES ARE COMPARED. CAR RELATED PARAMETERS SUCH AS DEFORMATION AND WALL VELOCITY AT DUMMY CONTACT ARE ALSO GIVEN.
