    C-NCAP Far Side Occupant Protection Protocol

    The C-NCAP Far Side Occupant Protection Protocol forms Appendix H of the C-NCAP Management Regulation (2024 Edition). We will refer to it as the C-NCAP Far Side Protocol 2024.

    The protocol has various components:

    1. Correlation fitting index for one of eight different Working Conditions
    2. Injury assessment for simulation and physical test for that Working Condition, to calculate Correction Factor A
    3. Injury assessment for the remaining seven Working Conditions
    4. Calculation of the Dual-Occupant Penalty for passenger in the Side Pole test (Appendix D), maximum 1.5 points
    5. If the vehicle contains a countermeasure (centre console airbag), and the user wishes to conduct the airbag symmetry validation via virtual vesting:
      1. Check the Virtual Assessment Certificate (correlation fitting index for simulation versus test, in Side Pole specified in Appendix D)
      2. Calculate a further Dual-Occupant Penalty for the driver in the airbag symmetry validation, where a new far side pole simulation is conducted. The setup is based on the Side Pole specified in Appendix D, but impacted on the front passenger side, and the driver dummy is the one used as the passenger in the origional Side Pole, maximum 0.5 points
    6. Calculate an overall score

    Navigating the C-NCAP 2024 Far Side Protocol: A complete process supported by Workflows

    The overall C-NCAP 2024 Far Side Protocol rating process is illustrated in the following flowchart, which explains the selections you need to make during setup in PRIMER with the Automotive Assessments Workflow, and the various REPORTER templates available for automated processing and reporting results:


    REPORTER Templates

    We have provided REPORTER Templates to help perform the injury assessments and results correlation – please see the following guides:

    1. C-NCAP Far Side Protocol 2024 Working Conditions 1-6 SimVT (and 7-8 SimVT)
    2. Working Conditions 1 to 8 (and Correction Factor A)
    3. C-NCAP Far Side Protocol 2024 Virtual Assessment Certificate
    4. Dual Occupant Penalties
    5. Summary Template

    Reference Table

    The following table lists:

    • Column 1-3: the loadcases required for the C-NCAP Far Side Occupant Protection Protocol, and the driver and passenger occupant model required for each
    • Columns 4-6: the Crash Test, Regulation, and Version you should select in Automotive Assessments to setup the user data required for each loadcase
    • Columns 7-8: a description of the part of the protocol you are trying to assess, and the occupant(s) of interest for this assessment
    • Columns 9-10: the relevant section of the protocol for this assessment
    • Column 11: which Virtual Testing Workflow tool to use to process this loadcase interactively – note that some of the calculations, like the Dual-Occupant Penalty, are only available in the REPORTER templates
    • Columns 12-13: the REPORTER template used to generate and report results automatically
