The input pulse for all the simulations used the standard triangular Federal Aviation<br />

Administration (<strong>FAA</strong>) 16-g, 180-ms pulse as shown in figure 27. Figure 28 shows the<br />

MADYMO lap belt properties, while figure 29 shows the properties <strong>of</strong> the seat cushion.<br />
