Abstract
NCAP(New Car Assessment Program) Test will be revised from 2015. For this paper, two types of side impact test have implemented. One was Korea NCAP Side MDB test and the other was Euro NCAP Side Pole Test.Korea NCAP Side MDB test have done two times with old(R95 MDB) and new(AE-MDB) version 1) . And Euro NCAP Side Pole test also have done two times with (90degree side pole test) and new(75degree oblique side pole test) 2) . Thus total amount of test was four times.In case of the side MDB test of Korea NCAP, R95 MDB test and AE-MDB test were compared. And in case of the side pole test of Euro NCAP, 90 degree side pole test and 75 degree oblique test were compared. From the test data and CAE result, structure deformation and dummy injury (ES-2 and SID-2) characteristic were somewhat different by test mode of each. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to reduce dummy injury data by optimization of structure and stiffness and apply new project.
