Side Member Crumple Section Simulation and Structural Optimization
Energy absorbing structural component in a car front impact The study shows the energy management of the front end structure it’s stiffness, strength and crush mode as function of occupant load. A well designed front end structure will have loads well below the tolerance limit of actual injury criteria (FMVSS 208, ECE R94) Progressive tube axial crushing and s-shape tube bending are commonly used as energy absorbers This paper presents experimental and FE parametric study of side member energy absorption capability, its force characteristic and the collapse mechanism
