UMTRI reported on PMHS and WorldSID 50th male dummy abdomen comparison testing using a two-mass sled system to obtain the typical side impact crash signature. Biofidelity targets were generated using the techniques from the ISO frontal biofidelity group chaired by Matthieu Lebarbe. Results indicate that the WorldSID abdomen does not deform as much as the PMHS under similar loading conditions. The WorldSID pelvis may need to be less stiff and have a less tightly coupled mass. Additionally, the thigh flesh may also be too stiff. The full analysis and results are published in ESV Paper 11-0080.
