Development Of A Certification Procedure For Numerical Pedestrian Models
Abstract
IntheEuroNCAPtestingofdeployablepedestrianprotectionsystems(i.e.activebonnetsandairbags),headimpacttime(HIT),wraparounddistanceandbonnetdeflectionduetobodyloadingareassessedbymeansofsimulationswithnumericalpedestrianmodels.Theaimofthisstudywastodefinerequirementsfornumericalpedestrianmodelsandsimulationsetupstoensurecomparableperformanceofmodelsandsimulationresults.These requirements were summarized in a certification procedure which focuses on the pedestrian’s kinematics that are important for the Euro NCAP assessment. Twelve different institutions (academia and industry) applied aharmonisedpedestriansimulationprotocol,whichwasestablishedwithinapreviousstudy.Numericalpedestrianmodelsinthestatureofthe50thpercentilemale(allapplicablefortheassessmentofdeployablesystemsuntil2017)wereimpactedwithfourdifferentlyshapedgenericvehiclemodelsatthreedifferentcollision speeds according to the protocol. Trajectories, contact forces and HITs were evaluated. Finally, 18 full datasetsincludingthe12loadcaseswereavailablecoveringdifferentHumanBodyModelsandHumanoidMultibodyModelsinfourdifferentFEcodes.Referencevalues,corridorsandtolerancesforthecertificationprocedurewerederived,basedonidentifiedconsistentresults.Comparablebehaviourwasobservedforthemajorityofpedestrianmodels.However,asmallnumberofsimulationsshowedclearlyoutlyingbehaviourintermsofHITs,trajectoriesandcontactforces.Theconsistentmodelswerewithinarangeof+3.5%and-7%throughoutallloadcases.Corridorsforthez-andx-trajectoriesasafunctionoftimeweredevelopedforthehead centre of gravity, T12 and the centre of acetabuli for each load case.

The procedure was implemented in the Euro NCAP Technical Bulletin 24 and has been in force since January 2018.
