Q10 Changes Driven By Euro NCAP Child WG

• Seating Posture◦ Match UMTRI Child Anthropometry – head and neck position

• Proper Belt Engagement and Kinematics◦ Shoulder belt – shoulder pad◦ Lap belt – thigh flesh

• Mass distribution improvement◦ Migrate mass from pelvis to thorax

• Other usage issues experienced in testing◦ Foot interference with front seat◦ Scapula interference with shoulder rubber and ribcage


5

Euro NCAP 2020 Q10 Contents• Euro NCAP Child WG Decision: Sept 2018• Head and neck position at neck base

◦ Reposition the dummy according to UMTRI child seating posture

◦ Forward shift the neck by 20 mm◦ Rotate the head rearward by 5.3 degrees

Motivation for additional testing:1. Abdomen stiffness is an important parameter which affects the kinematics of upper torso flexion, chin to

chest contact & Neck Fz;

2. CAE customers reported that the abdomen material is very stiff and leads to over-prediction of the Upper Neck Fz forces;

3. Humanetics proposed an interim solution by validating the abdomen insert using the TU-B sled setup;

4. The next step is to validate the Abdomen using a drop test setup.

• APTS (Abdomen Pressure Twin Sensor) are used for Abdomen injury assessment. Injury criteria are under ECE regulation R129. The sensor is used in the Q family dummies and THOR family dummies;

• Earlier beta version sensor model released in December 2016;• Further work planned for the sensor validation based on component

testing

APTS sensor FE model development


27

• Sensor validation based on Component Tests – multiple speeds
