Our KNOW-HOW

Dummy models
Finite element models of crash test dummies
We develop high-quality and accurate dummy models according to our clients' specifications.
- Development and maintenance of ATD models in close cooperation with our customers
- Special dummies, modifications
- Project support for specific issues on site

Dummy environment
Finite element models of the dummy environment
- Customised preparation of all vehicle components required for occupant simulation: seats, airbags, trim parts, ...
- Clearly defined interfaces of include structure all over the vehicle
- Dummy positioning, seating and harnessing
- Development of methods in pre- and post-processing

Occupant simulation
Special occupant simulation on behalf of
- Whiplash (cervical spine whiplash), child safety, substructures, sledges, ...
- Impactor load cases such as pedestrian protection and Free Motion Headform (FMH)
- Problem load cases, special solutions
- Special component validations, e.g. vehicle headlining, seat structures, ...
-
Further development of existing FE components:
- Detailing
- Increasing validation requirements
- Incorporate latest code features

Prototype development
From hardware to finite element model
We are able to create a FE model from a production sample.
- Basic data is collected in our own measuring workshop and immediately processed in-house.
-
Possible methods include
- 3D laser scan
- Computer tomography
- Weighing and photo documentation with body description
- Immediate target-performance comparison
- Further processing to CAD model
- FE model, validated according to customer specifications

Biomechanics
Biomechanical finite element analysis
- Development of special modelling techniques and analysis using simulation
-
Special process chain enables extensive analyses
- Material data, weighing, measuring
- Computer tomography
- CAD model
- Finite element model
- Validation loops
