Simulation Research on SUV Passenger Car Rear End Impact

Abstract:

The simulation model of some SUV passenger vehicle rear end impact is created in the paper aimed at the furnished vehicle CAD model of some SUV passenger vehicle, using the principle of finite element analysis; according to the relevant test regulations on vehicle rear-end impact. The motion characteristics of rear-end impact, the effect of overall energy absorption, absorption and buffer characteristics of main components, safety of fuel tank and ride safety of crew are analyzed and discussed deeply. The characteristics of collision and the degree of accordance with the safety regulations on vehicle rear-end impact of the vehicle are comprehensively revealed. Moreover, some improved suggestions is proposed, the basis for promoting the rear-end impact safety of similar model is discussed.
