Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to show the EUROSID-1 responses in full-scale side impact tests with passenger cars. From these responses, an impression is given as to what can be expected from EUROSID-1 under these test conditions. A large database is set up for this purpose. This paper provides a follow-up of an earlier study and specific attention is given to dummy responses in relation to the protection criteria in the (proposed) European test procedure. The influence of car test weight and number of doors on the dummy responses is analyzed. Also included are experiences of using EUROSID-1 with respect to repeatability, reproducibility, and sensitivity. (A) See also C 2661 (In: C 2572 a S) (IRRD 864695).
