LARD FE

The Large Anthropomorphic Research Device (LARD) manikin was originally developed for the United States Air Force Joint Primary Aircraft Training Program (JPATS). The program developed aircraft for initial pilot training across all branches of the military. The LARD manikin was designed to replicate Case 6, which has a stature of approximately 6 ft 2 inches and a weight of 245 +5/-0 lbs.

The LARD dummy model has undergone extensive validation against physical test data. It satisfies the certification criteria for the neck and lumbar regions and has been evaluated under horizontal, vertical, and lateral loading conditions.

For the LARD FE dummy model, the direct outputs are available from tri-axial accelerometers at multiple locations corresponding to the hardware dummy, as well as from load cells at the upper neck, lower neck, and lumbar spine.

Humanetics offers a highly detailed and validated LARD model in ANSYS LS-DYNA Finite Element code.
