50th Percentile Male Crash Test Dummy (Standing)
Category：Manikin System
Introduction
The 50th Percentile Male Crash Test Dummy (Standing) is a biomechanical surrogate designed for automotive frontal collision and related human impact testing. Based on anthropometric data of average adult males (50th percentile), it accurately simulates mass distribution, structural dimensions, and biomechanical responses in a standing posture. You can use it to capture and analyze acceleration, load, and displacement data at key human body locations during collision events.
Application
You can apply the 50th Percentile Male Standing Dummy in the following scenarios:
(1) Frontal occupant protection testing
(2) Pedestrian protection and standing human impact evaluation
(3) Active and passive safety system co-development and validation
(4) NCAP-related human injury analysis
(5) Regulatory compliance tests and full-vehicle safety performance verification
(6) Human impact studies for aerospace, high-speed rail, military, and special equipment
(7) Airbag, vehicle front-end structure, and protection system development testing
