Abstract
Through analyzing the vehicle side impact test data for X project, sub-structure simulation models are built by using PSM of MADYMO to find out optimization directions for current problems, and the optimization results are validated by vehicle test. The optimization plans for this project include decreasing armrestâs stiffness; matching SAB to resist direct contact between thorax, abdomen and door trim, increase the points of abdomen and thorax ribs; Adding the pelvis push foam, SAB, CAB can decrease thorax modifier T12 injury significantly and improve thorax protective performance. Vehicle optimization test data indicate that the optimization approaches can increase the total side impact scores effectively and arrive at the target value.
