Abstract:
      The main purpose of the design in frontal high-speed crashworthiness is to ensure the safety of occupants and minimize the passengers body damage.Meanwhile, in the frontal low-speed crashworthiness design, it requests to reduce automotive collision damage and possess good economic performance in the collision damage repair.According to the characteristics above, the vehicle frontal crashworthiness of high-speed and low-speed positive crashworthiness combined, and considering the lightweight of automobile body parts, an optimization design method is proposed.That is, thicknesses of frontal bumper, crash-box inner and outer plates, frontal longitudinal beam internal and external plates are selected as five design variables, and the energy of frontal longitudinal beam absorbed in the low-speed collision is taken as the basis of whether the large deformation, the agent model and genetic algorithm are used to calculate.Finally the method had been applied to a vehicle crashworthiness design.
