The current proposals for defining a test procedure for side impact can be divided into two general groups: Component/Sub-System Tests; Full-Scale Tests. The advantage of the former test procedure is that it provides a statement on a manageable group of vehicle components or sub-assemblies. This means that they can be designed in such a way that they are more suitable for the wide range of accidents which occur (collision directions, impact points) than a full-scale test, which provides an exact simulation of only one signle defined accident. The advantage of the full scale test is that it provides an integrated statement about the protective potential of the structural stiffness of the impacting and impacted vehicle in conjunction with the padding features for the selected type of collision and the selected collision speed. This is the reason why many of the automobile manufacturers have come out in in favour of the full-scale test. The evaluation of the protective potential of vehicle characteristics in the full-scale test however also depends on the quality of the dummies used. The requirement here is that the mechanical behaviour of the dummy should be as close as possible to that of human occupants in the event of a collision. However, the better a dummy meets these requirements, the more complex is its mechanical structure, and there is a greater risk that reproducibility of full-scale tests will deteriorate.
