Abstract

This paper describes a development of the Hybrid III AM 50%ile dummy FE model to be used for frontal impact simulations. The precise geometries of the dummy were measured at a pitch of 1.0 mm using X-ray CT scans. The material properties and the mechanical responses of the components were measured in static and dynamic tests and were used for the model validation. The FE model showed a good correlation when compared the kinematics and injury index values to those in the sled impact test.
