Performance
Calibration Tests
The calibration tests are also used to validate the physical WorldSID model. The tests are used as described in the WorldSID manual of the physical dummy (Road vehicles — Design and performance specifications for the WorldSID 50th percentile male side-impact dummy, Part 1-4, ISO 15830-1 to 15830-4). For each test, a short description of the test configuration is given in each single section. For more detailed information of the test setup please use the hardware manual of the WorldSID.
Component Tests
Selected components of the WorldSID are tested in special defined component tests. The goal of these tests is to have a fine validated component in a load range which can also be observed in a full car crash like the oblique pole of the FMVSS 214.
Sled Tests
The following sled tests are used for validation. There are two different sled shapes and for each shape two different arm positions. In addition one test is done without the jacket and one without the Arm.
