  • Modified contact settings. Set BSORT and SFS and SFM to default

Version v0.6.5

Date: 24.03.2025

  • Updated test data curves to start at exact 0. Rerun of notebook required.
  • Changed node name "seat" to "testbed" in 02_quality_criteria.def. No influence, as channel is not needed.

Version v0.6.4

Date: 14.03.2025

  • Corrected seat transformation
  • Introduced parameter for cutting time in score calculation in assessment notebook (time_cut_ms)

Version v0.6.3

Date: 12.03.2025

  • Extended test curves to 110ms for rear load case (closes #20)
  • Introduced parameter scalB to scale lab belt segment in case of intersections of belt to HBM (closes #19)
  • Changed parameter definition to avoid referencing parameter with "-" before parameter name (movSEz, movFRz)

Version v0.6.2

Date: 07.03.2025

  • Implemented score calculation to assessment notebook
  • Implemented added mass calculation to assessment notebook
  • Cosmetic adaptations

Version v0.6.1

Date: 06.02.2025

  • Added encoding to be able to read file_master in notebook (closes #17)

Version v0.6.0

Date: 03.02.2025

  • Relocated mass element to seat base to not influence load cell measurements.
  • Updated calculation for the location of the belt anchorage points in SCrear, SC1, SC2 and SC3. (closes #16)

Date: 13.01.2025

  • Fixed simulation time check in assessment notebook (closes #15)

Version v0.5.2

Date: 17.12.2024

  • Cosmetic changes to assessment notebook.
  • Added encoding info to read function of master file (utf-8). Closes issue #14.

Version v0.5.1

Date: 09.12.2024

  • Cosmetic changes

Version v0.5.0

Date: 09.12.2024

  • Removed two initial white spaces in line 437 in file 01a_Seat_semi_rigid_seat_210705.k (closes #13)

Version v0.4.1

Date: 05.12.2024

  • Update README to reflect that the setup is public

Version v0.4.0

Date: 05.12.2024

  • Corrected the curve values in the semi rigid seat file (closes #11)
  • Added time step definitions to documentation and master file
  • Switched test data of lap belt angle between inboard and outboard to reference correct data (closes #12)

Version v0.3.0

Date: 28.11.2024

  • Update to 01a_Seat_semi_rigid_seat_210705.k file. Included x-sections for left and right load cells (closes #10)
