The task force on rear impact assessment plans an online workshop June 29-30 from 1200-1600 CEST and an in-person workshop in conjunction with IRCOBI in September or later, possibly October at BASt. Topics include whether quasi-static testing in UN R17 is adequate. Presentations will cover evaluation of UN R17 whiplash protection tests using simulations, evaluation and development of regulations for whiplash protection in vehicle seats, injury criteria and biomechanical injury mechanisms, finite element models of the female Anthropomorphic Test Device, and future plans for Euro NCAP. Additional topics include rear row testing, low-speed impact testing, and improvement of certification processes for EvaRID and BioRID.
