The simulation of automotive seating continues to reduce prototype turnaround times and the cost involved with unnecessary prototype testing. With the increasing complexity of seat design, driven mainly by OEM requirements and ...

Der BioRID2 wird benötigt um Verletzungsgrößen in Heckaufparlllastfällen abzuschätzen. Eine häufige Verletzung stellt hier ein Halswirbelsäulen-Schleudertrauma, oder auch Whiplash genannt, dar. Die Ursachen der Verletzung selbst und ...

An improved Hybrid-III 50th %ile crash test dummy model has been developed in MADYMO. Advanced multibody techniques have been used to obtain fast computation times with the geometry and potential accuracy of CPU intensive finite ...

Modal methods in linear dynamic analysis are classical techniques to compute the response of structures. The mechanical idea behind is to find a particularly useful problem dependent basis (e.g. so-called eigenfunctions or eigenmodes) ...

The purpose of this paper is to explore some interesting aspects of optimization for crashworthiness occupant safety applications and to propose optimization strategies for highly nonlinear problems. With the today’s state of ...

For a planned airbag simulation model including 3yrs and 6yrs child dummy models, it is necessary to investigate available dummy models and choose the best suitable model. Firstly a market research study was undertaken to find out, ...

The European research project "CHILD" (Child Injury Led Design) is working on the improvement of passive safety of children as occupants in cars. One of the objectives is to develop new child dummy models. This paper focuses on the ...

This talk introduces into the development of head, leg, and upperleg forms as well as gives a summary of the discussed topics.

In order to design pedestrian protection systems with the aid of numerical simulation, an exact depiction of materials used in the front end of vehicles is necessary. Materials used are simulated according to law at room temperature ...

Working with LS-DYNA during the development of a new car, many different simulation tasks have to be performed. The overall aim is to improve the capability of a car to withstand certain impact levels, i.e. the displacements or the ...
