COMPUTE THE IIHS INTRUSION BASED ON THE SEAT AND THE MEASURING POINT

Computes the IIHS intrusion metric by calculating the displacement of a structural measuring point relative to a moving seat reference frame. Given time-history coordinate curves for both the seat and the measurement node, it returns the resultant intrusion curve used in IIHS side/small-overlap crashworthiness evaluations.

When to use

Classification: process.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Seat X seat_x vector   Time-history curve of the seat reference point X coordinate (mm or model units); used as the moving reference frame origin in the X direction — required unless the seat remains stationary.
Seat Y seat_y vector   Time-history curve of the seat reference point Y coordinate (mm or model units); used as the moving reference frame origin in the Y direction — required unless the seat remains stationary.
Seat Z seat_z vector   Time-history curve of the seat reference point Z coordinate (mm or model units); used as the moving reference frame origin in the Z direction — required unless the seat remains stationary.
Location X location_x vector   Time-history curve of the structural measurement node X coordinate (mm or model units); represents the intrusion measurement point position in X extracted from the simulation (e.g., binout nodout).
Location Y location_y vector   Time-history curve of the structural measurement node Y coordinate (mm or model units); represents the intrusion measurement point position in Y extracted from the simulation.
Location Z location_z vector   Time-history curve of the structural measurement node Z coordinate (mm or model units); represents the intrusion measurement point position in Z extracted from the simulation.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
curves_iihsintrusion_output_1 curves_iihsintrusion_output_1 vector Resultant IIHS intrusion time-history curve (mm or model units) representing the displacement of the measurement node relative to the seat reference frame; peak value is the reportable IIHS intrusion KPI.
