A huge amount of effort is spent to develop new materials. To participate the innovation potential of new material property you need to feed you simulations with the appropriate material parameters. Therefore the identification of the ...

This talk gives a brief overview in the topic of crashworthiness and test strategies for High Strain Rate Testing.

The testing system Impetus II provides the automatic analysis of dynamic loaded parts or samples and builds for the first time a closed way of realistic material morphology and load case during test over semi analytical models to ...

The objective of this study is to explore and identify vehicle body design countermeasures to meet the proposed upgrade of the FMVSS 216 standard. Finite Element (FE) methods in LS-DYNA solver are used as a tool to evaluate the ...

Adhesive joints of the car body have to conserve their integrity under crash loading and thus allow the whole structure to consume a large amount of dissipation energy. To meet the respective requirements the glue must exhibit high ...

In general the body-in-white (BIW) consists of thin walled structures joined with adhesives, spot welds, laser welds etc. Due to the efficiency and reliability of laser welding, it is increasingly applied in automotive applications to ...

Im vorliegenden Beitrag wir ein materialkonsistentes mathematisches Modell für isotrope, plastisch kompressible Klebschichten mit Berücksichtigung des Dehnrateneinflusses und der Entfestigung vorgestellt. Das Modell wurde aus einer ...

Structural adhesives have been introduced to increase the stiffness and crashworthiness, as well as to improve corrosion protection and sealing of the body-in-white in upper class car models and are now entering the segment of compact ...

The phenomenological description for the mechanical behaviour of ductile, toughened polymers is currently an active field of research in interfacial mechanics, since the recently developed crashmodified adhesives are well suited to ...

This paper investigates the possibilities of emulating car to car crashes with small lateral offsets by means of a simpler single vehicle crash test. By analyzing existing accident databases for accidents with small lateral offsets, a ...
