  5. Project Objectives GESAC, Inc

  6. Project Objectives • NPACS needs to develop a unique and consistent methodology to test and report on child restraints • The prototypes initially designed by Kiel university need improvement in mass, and manageability • Henry, Stefan : please put in a couple of slides here GESAC, Inc

  7. Project Objectives • Design six sizes of child manikins for evaluating and testing child restraint systems • Meet European anthropometric shape requirements for each size GESAC, Inc

  8. Project Objectives • Deliver small 3-year old dummy in December, 2006 for comments by customers • Customer evaluation to be coordinated by ÖAMTC • Deliver all other dummies by 1st quarter, 2007 GESAC, Inc

  11. Design Requirements • Use commercially available, standard fasteners • Design scalable dummies • Allow for simple assembly and disassembly • Dummies should be robust and easy to handle GESAC, Inc

  12. Design Requirements • Dummies to have anthropometrically correct shapes and masses, including segment masses • Dummies to have “human-like” range of motion • Weight of the 150 cm dummy to be limited to 20 kg GESAC, Inc

  13. Design Requirements • Allow for simple assembly and disassembly • Dummies should be robust and easy to handle GESAC, Inc
