Abstract:The objective of this study was to test a set of vehicles using both pedestrian automatic emergency braking (PAEB) and crashworthiness (CW) test protocols to evaluate ways in which the results of each test condition can be used to inform and, if necessary, refine, the test conditions and/or performance requirements of the other. PAEB test track results were used to determine CW head and leg impact speeds and locations, and CW test results were used to help understand minimum speed reduction requirements for PAEB tests. Secondary goals of this study were to explore a method for evaluating contact-induced safety features (i.e., deployable hood systems) and provide an improved overall picture of a vehicle’s expected real-world performance.
