Evaluation of the AFL Advanced European Mobile Deformable Barrier for Side Impact Versus the ECE-R95 in Dynamic Load Cell Wall Test
Many countries conducted side impact tests resulting in extensive safety measures for regulation. The IHRA conducted research activity in order to harmonized regulation worldwide, which was a challenging work. This had led to MDB improvements first and then to develop the deformable barrier representative for the EU-vehicle fleet so called Advanced European Mobile Deformable barrier AE-MDB. This work is a first evaluation of both MDB-R95 and AE-MDB side impact barriers in their standard dynamic Load cell Wall tests knowing that AE-MDB will be introduced to European New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP) rating soon.
