Ideas on Applying Very Fine Models in Dummy Model Development

Very fine models allow investigating the behavior of dummies with high accuracy. Even if ele- ment numbers for a dummy model above 3 Million elements are currently not suitable for stan- dard simulation in vehicle development, the usage of such models contribute to the development of coarser dummy models. Due to the detailed representation physical effects occurring can be captured very realistically with the very fine models. The paper present current methodology to develop models within the FAT or PDB frame work and outlines first experiences with very fine models to enhance coarse dummy models.
