摘要: This report contains the test procedures followed and test results from five frontal and one broadside crash test between 1997 Geo Metros and the FOIL instrumented 300K rigid pole. The tests were conducted at the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) located at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) in McLean, Virginia. The target test speed for each test was 35 km/h and the target test weight (no dummy was used for these tests) was 820 kg. The crush profile, electronic data, and high-speed film from these tests will aid computer simulation engineers in developing and validating finite element models of the Geo Metro and roadside safety hardware. The data will also be used to redesign the reusable honeycomb nose of the FOIL bogie vehicle to resemble the crush stroke of the Geo Metro.
