Ultra Light Vehicle (ULV) research Prototype: An Office of the Secretary of Defense funded science and technology effort to explore the art of the possible in survivability technology in order to inform and enhance future programs. The proposed pulse was also reviewed with, and concurred by, Dr Harold Bud Mertz, who is a distinguished safety expert from the automotive industry and provides expert consultation to the OCP TECD team. As more information from deceleration pulses of military and heavy truck vehicles becomes available, the design pulse spec will be modified accordingly. The proposed deceleration pulse is a sinusoidal waveform similar to the generic American Automobile Manufacturers Association pulse used in the auto industry, but has a higher peak value of 35g and lasts a lower duration of 62 milliseconds and corresponds to running head-on into a frontal barrier with an initial velocity of 30 mph. In other words, during initial product development, the frontal pulse specification is the common interface goal for the vehicle developer and the subsystem technology providers. For the developers of safety technologies such as seats, restraints, sensors, airbags, etc., it is the deceleration pulse that the subsystem needs to help manage energy.For the OEM or vehicle designer, it serves as the target deceleration to achieve as they design the front end of the vehicle to crush appropriately.Specification of such a pulse has a two-fold purpose: SPECIFICATION DEVELOPMENT OF FRONTAL CRASH PULSE FOR MILITARY VEHICLES - OCP TECD PROGRAM: As a part of the OCP-TECD initiative to develop standards and specifications, TARDEC Analytics EECS M&S team members worked with the TARDEC/OCP Standards Team to propose a generic frontal crash pulse (deceleration time history curve) for military vehicles.
