چکیده

A candidate anthropometric test device (ATD), or crash test dummy, must undergo a rigorous evaluation and documentation process before it can be considered for incorporation into Part 572 of the Code of Federal Regulations. This process has been developed over many years and includes (1) thorough dummy and drawing inspection, (2) establishment of dummy certification criteria, (3) evaluation of the dummy’s durability, biofidelity, repeatability, and reproducibility, and (4) the generation of a detailed manual for dummy assembly procedures. The evaluation process will be outlined and explained in detail. Recent dummy evaluations for the Thor Lx, the ES-2re and the Ten-year-old HIII dummies will be utilized as examples of the various parts of the process.
