Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

Introduction
The purpose of the ISO 15830- series is to document the design and specifications of this side-impact
dummy in a form suitable and intended for worldwide regulatory use.
In 1997, ISO/TC 22/SC 12 initiated the WorldSID 50th percentile adult male dummy development,
with the aims of defining a global-consensus side-impact dummy, having a wider range of humanlike
anthropometry, biofidelity, and injury monitoring capabilities suitable for regulatory use. Participating
in the development were research institutes, dummy and instrumentation manufacturers, governments,
and vehicle manufacturers from around the world.
With regard to potential regulatory, consumer information, or research and development use of the
ISO 15830- series, users will need to identify which of the permissive (i.e. optional) sensors and other
elements defined in ISO 15830-3 are to be used in a given application.
WorldSID drawings in electronic format as of June 6, 2004 are available.
This document is intended to document information and design changes which have become available
since the publication of the second edition of the ISO 15830- series, (2013-05-15).
In order to apply the ISO 15830- series properly, it is important that all five parts be used together.

Part 5:
Dummy design updates
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements and other design information which became available since
2013 for the WorldSID 50th percentile side-impact dummy, a standardized anthropomorphic dummy
for side-impact tests of road vehicles. It is applicable to impact tests involving:
— passenger vehicles of category M and goods vehicles of category N ;
1 1
— impacts to the side of the vehicle structure; and
— impact tests involving use of an anthropomorphic dummy as a human surrogate for the purpose of
evaluating compliance with vehicle safety standards.

4 Mechanical requirements for WorldSID
4.1 Mass properties
4.1.1 Body segment mass specifications
The body segment specifications noted in ISO 15830-2 were based on the parts that are included in
specified assembly drawings. For statistical purposes, prior to delivery, actual body segment mass
measurements are made, but the split line used between the upper leg and the lumbar spine and pelvis
is different than that specified by the assembly drawings. Specifically, the ISO specification included
the upper femur and ball socket in the upper leg, whereas the measured masses included these parts in
the lumbar spine and pelvis assembly. As a result of the different split lines, some confusion has existed
as users compare the measured dummy body segments masses with ISO 15830-2 specifications.
In addition, with time, more manufactured dummies have been included in the statistical database,
resulting in minor changes to the specified masses. To clarify this situation, Table 1 shows the
ISO 15830-2 specifications, updated mass specifications based on recent statistical studies, and
updated mass specifications with the alternative split line.

4.1.2 DAS mass
The body segment masses shown in Table 1 include sensors and allocations for DAS components (data
recorders, batteries, and other DAS-related components). Each non-load bearing sensor and DAS
component shall have a mass replacement and load cells shall have structural replacements which are
to be installed any time the actual component is removed from the dummy. Thus, body segment masses
shall not change as DAS components are added or removed from various segments. Over time, DAS
mass allocations and locations have changed slightly. Table 2 shows DAS mass allocations from 2005,
2013, and the current specifications which reflect actual DAS component masses measured by VRTC.

4.2 Permissible DAS mounting locations
Volumes within the thorax, pelvis, and upper leg have been designated as permissible locations for the
mounting of various DAS components within the WorldSID. The general locations and basic dimensions
of these volumes are shown in Figures 1 to 4.

4.3 Mechanical modifications
4.3.1 Arm detents
A system with a spring loaded ball and detents, to help users properly position the arms for testing,
exists between the shoulder and upper arm mount fittings. The design was changed in 2015 to facilitate
the positioning of the arm in three different positions as shown in Figure 5. The detent position did
not change between 2008 and 2015, but the ball detent size and spring tension were increased to
better hold the arm at the correct angle during positioning. The extra detent positions that allowed
a universal clevis were removed to eliminate confusion of which positions were to be used. The new
design requires separate right and left side clevis components.
