2009 Improving Rear Occupant Protection for Older Children |
摘要: |
This research will be conducted over a period of two years. Tasks 1 and 2 will be conducted in the first year, FY 2009. The overall objectives of this project are fivefold: Task 1 - Quantify belt fit for children 6 to 12 years not in booster seats (ID target population). Task 2 - Develop parametric model to simulate children 6-12 years in rear seat (optimize/develop model). Task 3 - Computer simulations - In this task, the parametric child ATD model developed in Task 2 will be exercised for the range of seat and belt conditions identified in Task 1. Task 4 - Sled tests - For this investigation of restraint performance for older children, testing with more realistic seat and belt conditions are needed. Based on the results of Tasks 1 and 3, a test matrix will be developed that includes testing on both full-length and modified second-row vehicle seats using both a range of real-world belt geometry and the optimized belt geometry identified in Task 3.Task 5 - Develop tool to optimize with 6-10-year-olds. |
