- Lower neck 6 channel load cell, 3 forces, 3 moments (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx,
My, Mz). Humanetics Model IF-217 (350 Ohm) or IF-218 (120 Ohm).
Thorax
Standard - 3 uni-axial accelerometers (or tri-axial accelerometer) in upper spine
(Ax, Ay, Az).
- 1 IR-TRACC sensor to measure chest deformation, frontal or lateral
(Dx or Dy) (Humanetics model IF-362).
Optional - Additional accelerometers may be installed with double sided tape
on flat spots at the rib cage and the thoracic spine (Ax, Ay) (see
notes below).
Lumbar Spine
Standard - 6 channel load cell at lumbar spine/ pelvis interface (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx,
My, Mz). Humanetics Model IF-217 (350 Ohm) or IF-218 (120 Ohm).
Abdomen
Optional - Twin pressure sensor
Pelvis
Standard - 3 uni-axial accelerometers (or tri-axial accelerometer) on pelvis
skeletal structure (Ax, Ay, Az).
Optional - Asis Load cell left and right (Fx, My) Prototype
Notes:
1. IR-TRACC sensor may be mounted in two ways, either to measure frontal or
lateral deformations. The IR-TRACC sensor cannot record the true deformation in
oblique impacts. It is recommended not be use the IR-TRACC in tests with
expected high oblique rib deformations; this can cause damage to the IR-TRACC
sensor, as it has limited range of motion in directions perpendicular to its sensitive
deflection direction.
2. Information on the installation of the instrumentation can be found in the
assembly/disassembly section of this manual.
