FIMCAR Project Description Proposal for Cooperation with GRSP IG FI

FIMCAR Project proposes a frontal impact assessment approach to improve vehicle compatibility and occupant safety in accidents. Structural interaction, force level, and restraint system are key areas addressed. Important deliverables include the analysis of accident databases and test protocols for various impact tests. Collaborative work areas with GRSP IG FI focus on test severity and geometric requirements.

  1. FI-09-05 FIMCARProject Description Proposal for Cooperation with GRSP IG FI

  2. FIMCAR Projectgeneral • 2nd Call FP7 (grant agreement no.: 234216) • Coordinator: TU Berlin (Heiko Johannsen) • 18 Beneficiaries • Budget: 6 Mio Euro / Funding: 3.8 Mio Euro • Main aim: Proposal for frontal impact compatibility assessment approach • Frontal Impact Compatibility Assessment is expected to consist of an off-set and a full frontal test (of which one could be an MDB test) Heiko Johannsen

  3. FIMCAR Projectconsortium Heiko Johannsen

  4. FIMCAR ProjectWhat is compatibility? • Compatibility consists of self and partner protection. • Improved compatibility will decrease the injury risks for occupants in single and multiple vehicle accidents. • Compatible vehicles will deform in a stable manner allowing the deformation zones to be exploited even when different vehicle sizes and masses are involved Heiko Johannsen

  5. FIMCAR ProjectWhat compatibility needs to address • Structural interaction (self and partner protection) • Compartment strength (self protection) • Front end force / deformation characteristics • force level (partner protection) • deceleration pulse and restraint system (self protection) Heiko Johannsen

  6. FIMCAR ProjectStructure Heiko Johannsen

  7. FIMCAR ProjectSchedule Heiko Johannsen

  8. FIMCAR ProjectMost important Deliverables • Report detailing the analysis of national accident databases (scheduled March 2011 but likely available earlier) • Test and assessment protocols for off-set, full frontal and MDB (draft scheduled for September 2010, final March 2012) Heiko Johannsen

  9. Common Work Areas as defined by IG FI • Test severity off-set test procedure • Define and motivate test metric (implicit definition of test severity (delta-v, EES, test speed, …)(FIMCAR (September 2010)) • Level of test severity in off-set tests(FIMCAR (September 2010)) Heiko Johannsen

  10. Common Work Areas as defined by IG FI • Introduction of Full Width test in frontal impact • Frontal structure architecture assessment (FIMCAR (September 2010)) • Define and motivate test metric (implicit definition of test severity (delta-v, EES, test speed, …) (FIMCAR (September 2010)) • Level of test severity in full width tests(FIMCAR (September 2010)) Heiko Johannsen

  11. Common Work Areas as defined by IG FI • Geometric requirements • Define interaction area (FIMCAR information to make decisions but no final proposal (September 2010)) Heiko Johannsen

  12. FIMCAR expectations from cooperation with GRSP IG FI • Early input from external parties • Regulatory bodies • Other regions of the world • Etc. Heiko Johannsen

  13. Dissemination work shop plans • Spring/Summer 2011 • Autumn 2012 Heiko Johannsen
