Nineteen full-scale crash tests were performed within the Basic Research in Crashworthiness Program; of these, five were 'base line' tests on the standard vehicle, two were primarily developmental tests to provide specific engineering information and three were performed within each of the four concepts pursued. The four vehicle modification series developed in the program are the engine deflection, forward structure modification, rear engine vehicle and side impact modification concepts. Summary information on the structural crashworthiness of the standard and modified vehicles are presented. (Author)
