AN EVALUATION OF THE SAE RECOMMENDED DESIGN CHANGES TO THE HYBRID III DUMMY HIP JOINT
The SAE Large Male and Small Female Dummy Task Group has recommended a change to the HYBRID III dummy hip joint. This change was made because of a non-biofidelic interference in the current design that can influence chest accelerations. The modification include a new femur casting shaft design and the addition of an elastomeric stop to the top of the casting. Static testing and Hyge sled tests were done to evaluate the modifications. Based on the results, the new design satisfied the requirements set by SAE task group and reduced the influence of hip joint characteristics on chest accelerations.
