New test laboratory for investigating the precrash behaviour of occupants in different directions and seating positions as a basis for the validation of active human models

Basic Information:

  • Maximal travel length: 3.75m
  • Maximal velocity: 4.3 m/s
  • Maximal acceleration: 10m/s²
  • High safety standards

Capabilities:

  • Individual acceleration profiles
  • Different seating positions by individual rotation of back rest and seat cushion about y-axis
  • Upright position ↔ Zero-G Position
  • Different loading directions by rotation of the seat about z-axis
  • Static rotation of seat about 360° à front and rear loading scenarios
  • Ready to upgrade testbed for dynamic rotation during pulse application
