• Abstract:
  The purpose of this report is to document the durability assessment of the WorldSID 50th Percentile Adult Male dummy when exposed to severe test conditions. In this assessment, the dummy was subjected to component qualification tests conducted at elevated energy levels. Prior to and following completion of the elevated energy tests, the dummy was exposed to baseline energy levels to help assess any possible changes in the dummy’s responses due to the elevated energy tests. Additionally, the components of the dummy were closely inspected after each test to determine if any damage occurred. This assessment demonstrated that the dummy exhibits good durability.
