Results from Shape Corp. evaluation of FlexPLI impactor and pedestrian protection test procedure.
Mr. Corwin presented the test results achieved by Shape (document GTR9-6-19). He noted that the assessment of test results at Shape has not yet been finalized but that the final results will be shared in the 7th meeting. Also, he mentioned that, following the discussion above and the unclear build level of the VRTC leg, his presentation will need to be updated. (Note of the secretary: A modified version was later provided during the meeting as document GTR9-6-19r1). However, Mr. Corwin explained that the main idea was to compare two different bumper systems at two cars which each are offered in North America and Europe and comply with the regulations in those countries/reigions. Messrs. Schmitt, Bilkhu, Zander and Suntay provided some comments on additional information that could be (or should be respectively) added such as comparisons of time histories, velocity data, more information on the differences of the bumper systems etc. Mr. Corwin promised to consider this in the revised version.
