It is positively necessary to study on the stiffness of a 13degree-type impact tester in order to improve the fracture prediction of impact testing in wheels using FE(finite-element) analysis. The 13degree-type impact tester consists of an impact striker, a wheel fixer, a steel plate, and four cylindrical rubbers. Important parts of the tester are the steel plate and four cylindrical rubbers which play a role of absorbing impact energy during impact testing. Because of these buffers, the RF(reaction force) variation of the lower part in the 13degree-type impact tester showed the tendency like a damped harmony oscillation during impact testing. In order to investigate the stiffness of a 13degree-type impact tester, this work measured each stiffness of a steel plate and cylindrical rubbers. The stiffness of a cylindrical rubber was measured using a compressive tester. On the other hand, the stiffness of a steel plate was predicted by simulating experimental method using FE analysis.

Recently, pedestrian protection related research topics have been actively studied by automotive designers and engineers due to the enhanced pedestrian protecting regulations. It is required to design an energy absorbing structure, such as crumple zone that can sufficiently absorb the impact energy to reduce the leg injury when accident happens. The structure is designed by reducing the height of front end module, considering the mounting location, and investigating impact characteristics. In this paper, the concept of the crumple zone was introduced and the role of the crumple zone was investigated by analyzing the performance of upper legform impact to a bonnet leading edge test, and the design process was suggested.

This paper concerns the crashworthiness of the widely used vehicle structure, the spot welded hat and double hat shaped section members, which are excellent on the point of the energy absorbing capacity and low production cost. The target of this paper is to analyze the energy absorption capacity of the structure against the front-end collision, and to obtain useful information for designing stage. Changing the spot weld pitches on the flanges, the hat and double hat shaped section members were tested on the axial collapse loads in impact velocities of 4.72m/sec, 6.54m/sec, 7.19m/sec and 7.27m/sec. To efficiently review the collapse characteristics of these sections, the simulation have been carried out using explicit FEM package, LS-DYNA3D. The solutions are compared with results from the impact collapse experiments.

In this study, collapse test of thin-walled structure is performed under axially quasi-static and impact load in collapse characteristic to develop the optimum structural member for a light-oriented automobile. Furthermore, the energy-absorbing capacity is observed according to the variety of configuration(circular, square), aspect ratio in aluminum specimen to obtain basic data for the improved member of vehicle. In both quasi-static and impact collapse test, Al circular specimens collapse, in general, with axisymmetric mode in case of thin thickness while collapse with non-axisynmetric mode according to the thickness increase. For Al rectangular specimens, they collapse with axisymmetric mode in case of thin thickness, with mixed collapse mode according to the increase of thickness. In terms of initial max. load, Al square specimen turns out the best member among specimens, and then Al square, circular and circular with large scaling ratio, respectively. In case of quasi-static compression test, the absorbed energy per unit volume and mass shows higher in Al circular specimen, and then Al square, circular with large scaling ratio, respectively, according to shape ratio the absorbed energy per unit volume and mass in case of max. impact compression load is higher than that of static load. But the absorbed energy per unit volume and mass shows that Al circular specimen is the best member. Especially, unlike max. compression loan, the absorbed energy per unit volume and mass in impact test turns out the low value.

성능중심의 건축재료설계 수행과정에서 어떤 성능에 대한 시험 방법이 복수 존재할 경우 최적 대안 선택에 필요한 시험방법 DB 기반구축의 일환으로, 인체충돌시 바닥의 안전성을 예로서 시험방법간의 연관성을 분석하였다. 8종류의 바닥시험체를 대상으로 EN 1177의 한계하강높이 시험과 JIS A 6519의 헤드모델 시험을 적용한 결과, 주로 바닥의 강성(쿠션) 크기에 따라 각 시험방법의 적용상 한계가 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 시험을 통해 측정하는 물리량 단위가 같은 경우라도 시험방법간 연관성이 불분명한 상태에서는 각각의 물리량이 호환되지 않는다는 것을 알수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 알루미늄 허니콤의 충격에너지 흡수 특성을 예측하는 것이다. 알루미늄 허니콤은 가볍고 에너지 흡수효율이 뛰어나며, 우주환경에서도 사용 가능하여 달착륙선의 충격흡수장치로 사용되고 있다. 충격에너지 흡수용 허니콤의 설계를 위해서는 에너지 흡수 과정에서 일정하게 유지되는 압축강도(crush strength)의 예측이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 이용하여 허니콤의 형상 및 충돌속도에 따른 압축강도를 예측하였다. 유한요소해석 프로그램은 Ls-dyna를 이용하였으며, 효율적인 유한요소 해석을 위하여 허니콤의 단위 셀 모델을 선정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 충돌속도 및 허니콤 포일(foil)의 두께 변화, 허니콤의 분기각(branch angle)에 따른 유한요소해석을 수행하여 에너지 흡수 특성을 분석하였다.

This paper presents an investigation of the contribution of fibers in energy absorption during impact and the effect of resin types on properties of the high strength polyethylene (Spectra-900 PE) composite. In high strength polyethylene fiber, main impact energy absorbing mechanism was tensile breakage and deformation of fiber. Two types of resin were examined : Unsaturated polyester (UP) and Epoxy. Tensile and 3-point bending test have been performed to investigate the changes of mechanical properties. In tensile and flexural testes, the Spectra Composite prepregged with UP showed higher properties than Spectra Composite prepregged with epoxy.

The widely used spot welded sections of automobiles(hat and double hat shaped section members) absorb most of the energy in a front-end collision. The sections were tested with respect to axial static(10mm/min) and quasi-static(1000mm/min) loads. Based on these test results, specimens with various thicknesses, width ratios and spot weld pitches on the flange were tested at high impact velocity(7.19m/sec and 7.94m/sec) which simulates an actual car crash. Characteristics of collapse have been reviewed and structures for optimal energy absorbing capacity is suggested.
