The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) offers vehicle crash testing services that evaluate how vehicles and their passengers respond to the external forces experienced during an automotive collision. Unfortunately, motor vehicle accidents are an inevitability, so auto manufacturers must account for them to ensure that their vehicles are reasonably safe in the event of an accident.
What is a Vehicle Crash Test?
A vehicle crash test evaluates the safety performance of motor vehicles under specific collision-related conditions. There are various crash tests, but they primarily involve a forced collision between a vehicle and a stationary structure or another vehicle. Engineers and experts use the crash test as a diagnostic and predictive tool to determine where design flaws may exist and how vehicles may react to specific points of impact. The information gathered during crash testing helps experts do the following:
- Evaluate the vehicle’s structural integrity
- Ensure that seat belts and airbags function as intended
- Inform consumers of a vehicle’s potential strengths and weaknesses in an accident
- Improve vehicle design and safety
