6. Structural optimization in vehicle crashworthiness design
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the optimization of structures subjected to impact loading. Major applications can be found in the crashworthiness design of vehicles. There is an industrial interest in using optimization methods in the crashworthiness design process. LÄS MER
7. On vehicle crashworthiness design using structural optimization
Sammanfattning : This dissertation addresses the problems and possibilities of using structural optimization in vehicle crashworthiness design. The first part of the thesis gives an introduction to vehicle crashworthiness design. LÄS MER
8. Towards energy-based fracture modelling for crashworthiness applications
Sammanfattning : The automotive industry is currently adapting to progessively more stringent emission and safety regulations imposed by governmental agencies. This introduces significant design difficulties due to the conflicting nature of passenger safety in automotive manufacturing, namely that increased crashworthiness generally leads to heavier vehicles, which in turn leads to more severe crashes. LÄS MER
9. Foam modeling including pore gas interaction for crashworthiness analysis
Sammanfattning : Foams are used in vehicles for three main functions: enhancing comfort, e.g.soft foams used in seats cushions, energy absorbtion, e.g. LÄS MER
10. Finite element simulation of airbag deployment and optimization in crashworthiness design
Sammanfattning : The passive safety of cars is of uttermost importance for the automotive industry. To improve the safety of cars, computer simulations of the vehicle and occupant system by the Finite Element Method (FEM), have become an industry standard tool. LÄS MER
