RE: Hallo! Can any body explain me w
A chuckhole is a horrible pothole with a steel surround, in our case about 6 inches deep.
Curb Island is probably hitting and driving over a traffic island
Forward WOT - obvious
Panic brake - obvious
SEPH - don't know, PH probably stands for pot hole.
They'd be some of the loads used for a suspension design.
Like I say, contact your customer to get actual loads and descriptions of the events.

I recall the 73 degree SEPH impact as a Ford test. SEPH stands for Square Edge Pot Hole. 73 degrees is obviously not square so it might signify the angle of the edge to the direction of travel.
A Google search did not turn up anything useful. Perhaps someone at Ford can see if there is anything internally available without disclosing any secrets.

I repeat, you need to get your customer to define the tests, different markets use different specs. I hadn't heard of a 73 degree SEPH requirement for instance - that sounds far too easy, but it may be supposed to replicate a curb-strike event.
