This research is to optimize Single-Piece Side otr reinforcement using Hot-stamping and to strengthen weak regions on Single-Piece Side otr reinforcement. As a consequence, the weight and the number of parts were reduced and resulting in improvement of impact and stiffness performance when compared to multi-piece construction.
