CRASH BOX EVALUATION: ANALYZING AND VALIDATING ENERGY ABSORPTION CAPACITY

Аннотация

This study presents an evaluation of crash boxes focusing on analyzing and validating their energy absorption capacity. Crash boxes serve as crucial components in vehicle safety systems, designed to absorb kinetic energy during collisions and mitigate the impact forces on occupants and structures. The research involves a comprehensive analysis of crash box designs, material properties, and structural configurations using numerical simulations and experimental validation techniques. Various parameters, including geometry, material selection, and impact conditions, are investigated to assess their influence on the energy absorption capabilities of crash boxes. Experimental tests are conducted to validate the numerical models and evaluate the real-world performance of crash boxes under controlled impact scenarios. The findings provide valuable insights into optimizing crash box designs for enhanced energy absorption and improved vehicle safety.
