Questions:

  1. http://www.wikispeed.com/safe states 'Penetration in Inches'. Where are the numbers?
  2. Re above question, what is the meaning of the scale in the bottom right picture (goes up to 265k)?
  3. Joe, do you have any other saved AVIs of the frame?

Simulation Review

  1. What are the dimensions of the test load if somebody is to redo the simulation?
    1. How does one interpret the results if the ideal load is rectilinear and real load is not?
  2. How do we access crash testing documentation? Is there a report that we can publish?
  3. What are the crash tests required? Side, front , rear, rear side, front side, any rollover?

FEA Specifications Met

  • Side crash testing, 5500 lb load at 35 mph
  • ...?
  • ...?
