Crash Simulation of Progressive Vehicle
Layouts & Components


24 January 2023  |  1:30 p.m.  CEST  |  Stuttgart

 

OBJECTIVE


The technological shift toward electromobility and automated driving means that vehicle architectures must be fundamentally rethought. Car body design must find new solutions, which in turn pose new challenges for vehicle safety. The electrospecific components, such as the high-voltage battery as well as the high-voltage cables, must be well protected in the event of an crash, because damage in a possible crash is to be avoided absolutely. In addition, these components lead to increased vehicle weight, which must be counteracted by new vehicle topologies or innovative lightweight materials. Especially when engineers are venturing into new territory, simulation offers a wide range of possibilities for quickly advancing and evaluating new solutions. The requirements placed on a car today are so complex that they can only be met with the help of simulations. This is because simulation is the only way to understand the function in the necessary depth at an early stage. Nevertheless, the technological challenges also require ever new approaches in simulation. With our simpulse day, we would like to discuss with experts from vehicle safety the relevant challenges for virtual development and highlight the latest simulation methods and best practices. In addition, the space for dialog and collaborative exploration of new methods will be given through a world café workshop.
