Title: Belt fit Manikin Representing a Two-Year-Old Child Open Access Deposited

h
Attribute Value
Methodology
  • A physical manikin was developed that represents a two-year-old child sitting in a vehicle seat. The manikin was developed to assess seat belt fit, particularly in aviation seats, but also has applicability in other environments such as ground vehicles.
Description
  • This is the first physical anthropomorphic test device to be based both on statistical body shape models as well as 3D printing.

Title: Belt Fit Manikin Representing a Two-Year-Old Child

Authors: Matthew P. Reed, Sheila M. Ebert, Kyle J. Boyle

Contact: Matthew P. Reed mreed@umich.edu http://mreed.umtri.umich.edu/

Grants: This manikin was developed using internal UMTRI funds

Key Points:

- A physical manikin representing a two-year-old child was developed for use in assessing safety belt fit in aviation seats.
- The manikin is based on statistical modeling of child body shapes and is constructed using 3D printing techniques.
- An internal armature allows posture articulation at the hips and neck.

Files contained here:

- Files names with .STL describe the 3D printed surface components.
- 2YO_manikin_drawings.pdf contains the detailed engineering drawings.
