GTR7 | Session 7 | 10 Jun 2011 |
Presentation from Mr Donnelly, NHTSA (GTR7-07-05): NHTSA is developing a new side-by-side buck, using 2011 Chevrolet Cruze seats, rated ‘Good’ in Euro NCAP and IIHS, for tests with BioRID and Hybrid III. Backset will be adjusted to create a ‘poor’ seat as well (44 mm backset for good, 82 mm for poor). The Annex 9 (Euro NCAP mid) pulse will be used. Injury risk collaboration with JARI. Preliminary NHTSA injury risk functions will be available by the end of October 2011. JARI is also modelling real-world crashes. A combined recommendation on risk functions will be available by the end of Feb 2012. JARI will also try to model the effect of the instrumentation mass on the PMHS tests by end April 2012. Mr Frost reminded the informal group has to report to WP.29 at the end of 2011 and indicate whether the work is on schedule. Hopefully the couple of extra months indicated in the above schedule won’t be a problem for this. |
