DOREL presents results on tests performed with the NPACS belted bench & Q6 (CRS-38-03).

Installation method was in line with R44 regulation. Despite, simulations with the Q6 model show submarining effect when the bench has a 5° angle, there were no evidence of submarining with these current tests. Human modeling and Q6 kinematics (CRS-38-04) from IFSTTAR: Simulation of the bench model from TUB and First results with the 6 years olds human model => Human Model submarines when directly installed on the bench, no submarining occurs when it is in a CRS.

The safety benefit of a booster is shown by the human model not by the Q6 dummy.
