Informal Group on Frontal Impact | Session 21 | 11 Jun 2013
Brussels
Agenda Item 3.3.5.
Updating of the test configurations matrix (protocols and criteria)

An updated version of the table will be circulated. VTI (R.Thomson) suggests that the bio-mechanical sub-group (chaired by X.Trosseille) could gather the positions on lines 5 to 8.

OICA (J.Abraham) mentions that the word “passenger” will have to be clear in order to avoid misunderstanding if there is no passenger in the front, or if there are 3 seats in the front.
=>proposal “front outboard seating position”.

NL (H.Ammerlaan) wishes to make clear that, when talking about a set adjustment range, it is necessary to consider the total travel of the seat (rearmost driving position, ie the R point, so the middle is taken from this part).

=> Action for all before: provide comments on this table before July 19th in order to have a consolidated document to be circulated before the next meeting.
