ABSTRACT:
Real scale investigations can be carried out on vehicle impacts using a vehicle, or part hereof, or crash barrier, tested on a large dynamic testing facility (LDTF). The LDTF includes nodes connected at either end of a sample under test crash barrier. The forces in the bar are measured by Hopkinson output bars connected at right angles at each node to measure perpendicular components of a force in the barrier. Vehicle may be equipped with additional instrumentation and used as an impactor against the barrier.
