PART III: TIME HISTORY EVALUATION TABLEA) Analysis of each single channelUsing the RSVVP computer program („Single channel‟ option), compute the Sprauge-Geer MPCmetrics and ANOVA metrics using time-history data from the known and analysis solutions for atime period starting at the beginning of the contact and ending at the loss of contact. TheSprauge-Geer metrics must be calculated based on the velocity time-history and the ANOVAmust be based on the acceleration time-history; these the defaults produced by RSVVP. If all sixdata channels are not available for both the known and analysis solutions, enter “N/A” in thecolumn corresponding to the missing data. In some cases, an analyst may deem some of the timehistories unimportant and may also record “N/A” for those time histories as well. An examplewould be a breakaway sign support test where the lateral (i.e., Y) and vertical (i.e., Z)accelerations are presumably insignificant to the dynamics of the crash event. Enter the valuesobtained from the RSVVP program in Table 2a and indicate if the comparison was acceptable ornot by entering a “yes” or “no” in the “Agree?” column.In order for the analysis solution to be considered in agreement with the known solution (i.e.,verified or validated), all the criteria scored in Table 2a must pass.The Analysis Solution (check one) passes does NOT pass all the criteria in Table 2a.Attach a graph of each channel for which the metrics have been compared in Appendix.4
