The Wichita State University purchased a horizontal impact sled. The sled is currently being subjected to various acceptance tests. The primary objective of this research program is to complete the development of a total dynamic test capability to support elements of the aircraft industry in meeting future and present FAA regulatory standards. The FAA has developed these regulatory standards for seats and restraint systems and is expected to issue new standards for various aircraft components. It is anticipated that the FAA will conduct various dynamic tests in this laboratory in support of their own program in crashworthiness.
