The Relationship

In order to improve the efficiency of the calculation of the whole car side impact finite element model,simplified model often used in research of B-pillar in passenger car. It is critical to establish a high accuracy simplified model in a short time. The relationship between the energy absorption of body parts and the calculation accuracy of simplified model was analyzed,and the result can be used as a guide for the establishment of simplified model.

Abstract A three-dimensional finite element model of the human thorax has been developed to study the mechanism of aortic rupture due to blunt impacts. The model has been validated against data from pendulum tests in both frontal and lateral directions. Effective stresses of the aortic inner wall were predicted in four different regions that are most likely to rupture. The aortic isthmus, clinically the most frequently ruptured site, was found to have the highest magnitude of stress among four locations in both frontal and side impact simulations. It is hypothesized that bending of the aortic arch posteriorly and stretching of the aortic arch laterally lead to biaxial tension at the aortic isthmus during blunt impact, which may help to explain the mechanism of injury in aortic ruptures.

This paper describes the modeling and validation of the new WorldSID 50th percentile male dummy (WorldSID50) model for the Abaqus finite element (FE) software suite [1]. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model has been developed by Dassault Syste`mes Simulia Corp. in cooperation with the Partnership for Dummy Technology and Biomechanics (PDB), a consortium that includes the following German automobile manufacturers: Audi, BMW, Daimler, Porsche, and Volkswagen. The objective of the dummy development project was to develop a robust virtual dummy model that closely mimics the behavior of the hardware dummy in order to minimize the need for physical testing during vehicle design. Data obtained through extensive experimental tests performed at all levels of the dummy assembly — material coupon, component, sub-assembly, and full dummy — were used to calibrate and validate the finite element model. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model results show good correlation with the hardware dummy output signals for a wide range of tests. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model was approved for use in production by the PDB.

Side Crash

The safety of vehicle side impact has become an important research content in the field of automotive passive safety. The nonlinear dynamic explicit finite element method is used to establish the side crashworthiness model of vehicle and side crash finite element model validation is also given. The finite element model is consistent with vehicle side stiffness, which can be used in the side crash simulation analysis. The simulation calculation and result analysis of side crash are carried out for a particular vehicle model to improve the side crash safety performance.
