Updated version of the historical review of the development of the certification corridors for the Flex-GTR test tool developed for the phase 2 amendments to GTR 9 on pedestrian safety.

Adopted minutes from the first technical session of the task force evaluating the certification corridors for the Flex-GTR test tool developed for the GTR on pedestrian safety.

Twice updated revised EC submission (from document GRSP-51-10) intended to raise awareness of certain concerns over clarity and implications of proposed amendments related to the measuring points of the headform and lower legform test procedures and to ensure full support among Contracting Parties.

Revised proposal from Russia to delete the phrase “with separate driver’s cab” from the scope of UN R29 in order to affirm that the regulation applies to all N1 and N2 category vehicles.

GRSP/2012/11 proposes to correct text for electric vehicles in UN Regulation Nos. 12, 94, 95 and 100, replacing the word “power train” with “occupants” in the referenced rules. This document replaces ‘registration’ with ‘approval’ in transition provisions in accordance with WP.29 guidelines.

Netherlands proposal intended to enhance head restraint effectiveness for taller people.

Netherlands presentation concerning the effort to ensure that head restraints provide effective protection at maximum height levels.

Review of J-MLIT,JASIC, and JARI preliminary results from research into the Inter-Vertebral Neck Injury Criterion (IV-NIC) as part of collobarative investigations with the USA.

NHTSA presentation on the development post-mortem human subject injury risk curves for use in developing injury assessment reference values for evaluating head restraint effectiveness in rear impacts.

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.

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.

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).

Trends in rear-impact accidents and injuries in Japan and implications for criteria to be used in determining head-restraint effectiveness in preventing neck injuries in such accidents.

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.

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.

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.
