GTR7 Drafting Group – Working Doc 1 including edits at e-meetings up to and including 30/11/2012, meeting 11 (Geneva 12/2012) and taking account of the workshop held at BASt (27/03/2013).

Guidelines for the development of drawings for a test tool to be added as an Addendum to UN Mutual Resolution No. 1.

Report on the project to assess the use of a dynamic geometry test procedure and to validate the calibration of
marker tracking systems so that the dynamic geometry measurements are of equivalent, traceable robustness to conventional load cell or accelerometer measurements.

Comparison of FMVSS 202a, GTR 7 (Annex 1) and Netherlands-proposed height measurement procedure (per the December 2011 presentation).

In 2010 calibration tests without headrest （see document GTR7-06-06）, the waveform configurations of the 095G dummy were different from those of the 102G dummy and the 115G dummy. This presentation, updated from the GTR7-8 session, provides the results of investigations into this difference.

Updated presentation from the previous informal group meeting (GTR7-08) of December 2011 on the development of new procedures to ensure effectiveness of headrest protection for taller occupants (e.g., when headrest set at maximum height).

Overview of factors involved with precision of HRMD-backset measurements.

Expanded preliminary findings on post-mortem human subject injury risk curves and potential injury assessment reference values for rear-impact protection testing.

PDB comparison of test results pursuant to the Occupant Safety Research Partnership testing of the PDB dummies.

Results of investigations intended to validate the reduction of tolerances for the BioRID II setting & acceleration pulse in the test procedures by analyzing the variations of test results due to various tolerance levels.

Overview of Japanese research and conclusions regarding the reduction of minor neck injuries during rear-end impacts.

In 2010 calibration tests without headrest （see document GTR7-06-06）, the waveform configurations （phase shift） of the 095G dummy were different from those of the 102G dummy and the 115G dummy. This presentation provides the results of investigations into this difference.

Results of BioRID-II dummy calibration tests with headrest conducted using heavy and light probe weights to evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of the dummy responses.

Presentation on the results of testing to compare the responses of the BioRID II with those of the Hybrid III when subjected to FMVSS 202a and Modified Annex 9 rear impact pulses using OEM vehicle seats.

Presentation on sled tests of the PDB dummies conducted by NHTSA’s Vehicle Research and Test Center (VRTC) to assist Humanetics in identifying causes of the reproducibility problem encountered by the Partnership for Dummy Technology and Biomechanics (PDB).

Results of the Occupant Safety Research Partnership evaluation of dummies provided by the Partnership for Dummy Technology and Biomechanics (PDB) to determine if the
upper-neck response-differences observed across PDB dummies could be repeated and the source(s) of the differences identified.

Review of Humanetics evaluation of test dummies provided by the Partnership for Dummy Technology and Biomechanics (PDB), a cooperative venture by German car manufacturers in the competitively neutral field of crash test dummy technology, biomechanics and simulation.
