Abstract

NHTSA(National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) has published an update to the FMVSS214 regulation which includes the Pole Impact test configuration using the ES-2re and SID-IIs dummy. This updated standard adds a new side pole test requirement in addition to modifying the test procedure used to perform dynamic side impact testing. This paper shows a new technique to improve the occupant injury performance during the Pole Impact test.
