NEW ADVANCED METHODS IN SIDE CRASH TESTING

Abstract

This work follows up the previous work [1] regarding the used methodology in the field of passive safety, ie. crash testing. The work is based on experience gained in the Active Lateral Impact Simulator (ALIS) project and describes complete process. The main focus has been given to the fine-tuning of the boundary conditions and loading of the system in order to ensure correct biomechanical loads.
