A test program was designed and conducted to determine the dynamic force/deflection characteristics of passenger vehicle front seat backs. Seat backs from nine different passenger vehicles were tested using a modified six-year-old headform. The headform was impacted at two different locations on each seat back and the results of these tests are presented. Stiffness corridors were created for each impact location based on the results. A single corridor was then created to represent a stiffness range over the entire seat back region. The criteria used to develop the corridor boundaries are discussed and presented as well.
