SCALE TESTS OF A MULTI-SEAT AIRBAG

The natural frequency and damping of symmetrical and asymmetrical modes of a six seat airbag have been measured by using an approximately half-scale model. Pressure relief by venting of air is also examined, and the effect of changes in scale and geometry is discussed.
