Abstract:As part of a larger project aimed at gaining a better understanding of factors that affect the quality of test results using Anthropomorphic Test Devices (ATDs), the FAA tested the effects of long-term static ATD pelvis loading during storage. Testing simulated two types of ATD pelvis storage methods of the 50th percentile Hybrid III ATD for one year. The objective was to measure any changes to the rubber and foam that cover the metallic pelvis of the ATD. In one storage method, the ATD pelvis had no contact between the foam and rubber shell and an external surface. The second storage method had the pelvis loaded with 125 lbs on the bottom side of the pelvis.
