Abstract

Four rigid barrier, frontal vehicle tests at 48 and 56 kph using the TAD-50M dummy were performed. Restraint conditions included a 3-point belt only, an airbag only, and a combination bag and 3-point belt system. TAD-50M responses, including the head, chest, and pelvic accelerations, belt and femur loads and chest deflections have been analyzed and compared with the Hybrid III. Some user convenience issues related to the use of the TAD-50M in a test environment are also discussed. (A)
