Side-Impact Aggressiveness Attributes MDB-to-Car Side Impact Test of a 19 deg Crabbed Moving Deformable Barrier to a 1981 Volkswagen Rabbit at 46.4 mph

摘要

The test report documents one of a series of twelve crash tests to evaluate the side impact aggressiveness attributes of various deformable barrier face configurations. The configurations to be used are designated as 'Lowered Stiffness', 'Altered Profile' and 'Lowered Bumper'. In addition, four pole tests will be conducted. Testing was conducted on a 1981 baseline Volkswagen Rabbit 2-door hatchback. Occupant responses of two side impact dummies were measured.
