Uncoated fabrics will continue to have a major market share in airbag applications in the future. The reasons are smaller package size, easier recycling and reduced material cost. In order to achieve proper prediction of performance ...

From February 2009 Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program) has introduced a new overall safety rating for cars. This revised rating with a maximum award of five stars shall take real life safety more into consideration and ...

The corpuscular method is a coarse-grained muti-scale method developed for gas dynamics simulation. It is based on the kinetic molecular theory, where molecules are viewed as rigid particles obeying Newton’s laws of mechanics. Each ...

The improvements in frontal crash safety registered in the last decade have been considerable, however, these improvements could only be partially transferred to the area of side crash. This accounts for part of the reasons why this ...

This talk gives an overview in variability in crash testing, crash dummy variability minimization as well as discusses CAE needs and solutions.

For testing side impact performance of vehicles two recent male-sized dummies are available. Currently only the ES-2(re) is used in regulations and consumer test. It is expected that the WorldSID will be used for some load cases as ...

Mechanical Properties of press-hardened components are significantly dependent on the cooling conditions. In this study the dependence of the mechanical parameters (Rm, Rp0,2, Ag, A 5-h10) on the cooling rate is determined ...

The paper presents the newly developed intuitive graphical user interface for industrial metal forming simulation, IndiForm. IndiForm is extremely easy to handle and can be used as pre- and post-processor independently of a particular ...

Für eine genaue Bestimmung von Fließortkurven, ist die Ermittlung der Fließspannung bei verschiedenen Spannungszuständen notwendig. Neben dem Zugversuch und der Messung von r-Werten finden dabei auch Druckversuche an kleinen ...

In the recent past hot stamping simulation has established itself more and more within the press hardening community. However the requirements on a simulation software are continuously increasing due to an increasing complexity of the ...
