6.4.3 Panel Stiffness and <strong>HIC</strong> at an Impact Angle <strong>of</strong> 53 Degrees.<br />
Figure 34 shows the relationship between the panel stiffness and <strong>HIC</strong> value for the NHCT and<br />
the FSST at an impact angle <strong>of</strong> 53 degrees. The <strong>HIC</strong> values for the NHCT and the FSST were<br />
calculated using the coefficients derived in MADYMO (equations 7 and 8).<br />
where: K = Stiffness <strong>of</strong> the panel (lb/in.)<br />
<strong>HIC</strong> NHCT = 2.91 K (7)<br />
<strong>HIC</strong> FSST = 2.24 K (8)<br />
