MAMA2B - 262-0000

MAMA-2B (Maternal Anthropometry Measurement Apparatus Version 2B) is a kit with pregnant abdomen and torso for a small pregnant dummy. It can be retrofitted to the standard Hybrid III small female dummy (H3-5th Female Dummy, P/N 880105-000-XH). The abdomen uses a fluid-filled silicone rubber bladder to represent the human uterus at 30-weeks gestation. Compared to the original pregnant abdomen, this design has improved geometry and improved impact response to a range of potential in-vehicle loading conditions.

The MAMA-2B is still a research and development product. It was developed by UMTRI and FTSS in 2001. Two IR-TRACCs have been added to this version to measure the chest deflection. The IR-TRACC rotation around Z axis also can be obtained by the potentiometer assembled to each IR-TRACC.
 
The total weight of the MAMA-2B dummy is 128 +/- 2 lbs., while the standard H3 5th percentile dummy weight is 108 +/- 2 lbs.
