EuroNCAP - Numerical Assessment
• Over the last years virtual testing and approval has gained importance
• EuroNCAP recently (Feb. 2011, protocol 5.2.1.) adopted a Pedestrian Testing Protocol for the assessment of active bonnets
• The MADYMO ellipsoid pedestrian human models have been accepted as a numerical tool in this protocol
• (Info on protocol also via http://www.euroncap.com)

Active bonnet systems
• Purpose: Generate additional deformation space between bonnet and underlying components (e.g. engine); reducing head injuries
• Triggered when impact of pedestrian with bumper is detected
• System should be fully deployed at time of impact of pedestrian head
• Pedestrian protocol is updated with a part to determine the state of the active bonnet to be used during head impact testing

Active bonnets - Challenges for performance & Assessment
• Active bonnet performance can depend on full body kinematics of the pedestrian
• Timing of triggering, deployment and head impact
• Loading of bonnet by other body parts can reduce generated deformation space
• Hence, full body pedestrian representation needs to be included in the assessment, to be used in several load cases (locations / sizes)
• Hardware (pedestrian dummies) not feasible due to
• Limited availability of hardware pedestrian dummies in various sizes
• Complex to perform multiple tests at different locations in a well defined manner
• Hence, full body assessment done by means of numerical simulations
• MADYMO ellipsoid pedestrian models have been approved by EuroNCAP to be used for this purpose

Active Bonnets in EuroNCAP - Assessment
• Determining impactor test conditions
• Detection of pedestrians - ‘hardest to detect simulations’
• Timing of bonnet deployment – ‘Deployed state for testing’
• Protection at speeds below the lower deployment threshold speed
• Numerical impactor & Physical tests (up to 3) to confirm the above
• Protection at higher impact speeds
• Physical impactor testing at 50 km/h to confirm triggering and initiation of deployment
• Bonnet deflection due to body loading – ‘Proof system does not bottom out’
![Page 11: MADYMO human models for Euro NCAP pedestrian safety assessment](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/558c98ccd8b42a55618b463b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
• Run numerical simulations to determine “Hardest to detect” loadcase
• Vehicle impact on (full size) pedestrian model at lower deployment threshold speed
• 4 different pedestrian model sizes (6 year old, 5th, 50th and 95th %-ile)
• 2 different impact locations per model size
• Pedestrian posture:
• Pedestrian in walking posture, moving perpendicular to the vehicle centreline
• Leg on impact side rearward, other leg forward
• Calculate effective mass for “Hardest to detect” loadcase
• Perform impactor tests on the bumper to check whether the system triggers
• Impactor mass: Calculated effective mass
• Impactor speed: lower deployment threshold
Bonnet state determination requirements - Detection of pedestrians

12
• Time independent devices (e.g. pop-up bonnet) • Numerical simulations (or other means) required to determine head impact time (HIT)
• Vehicle impact on (full size) pedestrian model with 45 km/h
• Use smallest appropriate pedestrian model size (or 1 for adult and 1 for child/small adult).
• Pedestrian posture as for “Detection of Pedestrians”
If deployment completed before HIT • Test in deployed state
If deployment completed before HIT of adults headform locations but not before HIT of child/small adult headform locations
• Test adult headform in deployed state and child / small adult in undeployed state
If deployment not completed before HIT • Test in undeployed state
• Time dependent devices (e.g. airbag): • All head impact tests are dynamic
• Numerical simulations (or other means) required to determine head impact time as function of WAD, in order to determine deployment timing in head impact test
Bonnet state determination requirements - Timing of bonnet deployment

• Run numerical simulations
• Vehicle model excluding underbonnet components (engine, battery etc.)
• Vehicle impact on (full size) pedestrian model with 40 km/h
• Use pedestrian model size that loads the least supported part of the bonnet to have maximum deflection.
• Pedestrian posture as for “Detection of Pedestrians” head on vehicle centreline
• 2 simulations to determine bonnet deflection
• Bonnet in undeployed state
• Deflection = z1
• Bonnet in deployed state
• Deflection = z2
• Requirements
• h2 + h3 > z2
• z2 – z1 < 0.75 * h2
