APPENDIX A. POSITIONING OF THOR IN A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Page 1APPENDIX A. POSITIONING OF THOR IN A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE The following procedure is an example of how the posture of the Thor dummy can be adjusted within a vehicle to correspond to a target posture. In this example the Thor dummy was placed within a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The target posture was defined using volunteers seated in the same vehicle in their normal driving posture. The posture of the Thor dummy was set by adjusting the Hpoint pelvis spine head and neck according to Section 2.7 Dummy Posture Adjustments and Positioning. To obtain the target posture vehicle measurements were recorded using three volunteers with height and weight resembling those of a 50thpercentile male. Figure 1 illustrates the location of these measurements and the values can be seen in Table 1 which also include measurements for the Thor dummy. The objective was to use the range of the volunteers as a guide in positioning the dummy.
