CAE
Special features
- By using various CAE simulations, the number of trial productions and evaluation tests can be reduced.
- By analyzing plasticity processing, the mechanisms of deformation can be revealed.
Applications
- Impact beams, bumper reinforcements, steering beams, various arms, buffering materials, etc.
Application examples for protecting the heads of pedestrians
Materials characteristics and optimum forming conditions can be predicted.
■ Deformation situation at the time of an accident
■ Head Injury Criteria (HIC value)
Example of application for energy-absorbing components
This facilitates the design of cross-sectional shapes and component shapes.
Axial compression
■ Static compression test on energy-absorbing components
■ CAE
Bending
Cross-sectional buckling
