Japans Comment on GRSP/2005/5 ECE-R.16 Introduction At the 37th GRSP, we verified if the content proposed in GRSP/2005/5 as below is feasible in HyGe test facilities commonly used in Japan and reported the result: ? Acceleration curve within the corridor ? Initial slope of acceleration ：5ms-10G 10ms-20G ? Sled total velocity change :?V = 51 +2/0 km/h ? Sled acceleration distance :50 +1/0 km/h = 40?5 cm As we reported the result of verification in Informal Doc. GRSP-37-10, we could not produce a sled pulse complying with all requirements simultaneously. Introduction In addition, at the 37th GRSP, we discussed provisions intended to regulate the sled acceleration initial slope because there existed two provisions; “Sled acceleration distance” and “Initial slope of acceleration (5ms-10G, 10ms-20G) ”. As a result, “Sled acceleration distance” was deleted. At the same time, Japan proposed “7.5ms-10G, 12.5ms-20G” because “Initial slope of acceleration： 5ms-10G, 10ms-20G ” is difficult to be met, but it is carried over to the next session. We decided to conduct a verification test again to see if “Initial slope of acceleration: 5ms-10G,10ms-20G” can be achieved with the condition excepting “Sled acceleration distance”. Verification test This verification test was conducted to satisfy the following conditions first, ? Acceleration curve within the corridor ? Sled total velocity change :?V = 51 +2/0 km/h and then we reviewed whether it is possible to satisfy the initial slope of the sled acceleration (5ms-10G, 10ms-20G) or not. The tests were conducted with the pins currently possessed by each facility on this occasion. Acceleration Sleds Used in Japan Results of Verification The test was conducted using existing test facilities in Japan (HyGe). Unfortunately the test results did not fulfill all the proposed requirements. Especially as the 12inch HyGe Sled has heavy sled mass, the 5ms-10G and 10ms-20G requirements were very hard to be met fo
