TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Parametric study on the side impact simulation of renault vss JO - Proceedings: International Technical Conference on the Enhanced Safety of Vehicles A1 - Steyer, C. A1 - Najchaus, R. SP - 549 EP - 554 VL - 1993 IS - N2 - This paper covers a series of numerical studies aiming at optimizing structural reinforcement for the Renault 19 series-production. The project breaks down into two main parts. The first phase is that of validation of the numerical simulations in two extreme cases of vehicle-structure stiffness. Once these results were obtained, the model allowed for a hierarchical arrangement of reinforcement zones based on criteria of car side intrusion speed.
