Arup Cellbond Barrier Models
A range of robustly validated finite element models for LS-DYNA.
EEVC Advanced 2000 Side Impact Barrier
This barrier model is available in:
- Shell element type (image above)
- Solid element type
This barrier is used in the EU front impact regulation and by several consumer test organisations such as Euro NCAP and the IIHS in their front offset impact test. The specification used for the deformable impact barrier in this documentation has been taken from the ECE R95 Amendment 3 dated September 2003.
Validation
The LS-DYNA model calibration has been done using the test results provided by Cellbond:
- Offset Pole Impact at 5.6 m/s.
- Rigid wall impact at 9.7 m/s.
The force-deflection curves (generated from model analysis and test) for the individual block of the barrier have been compared. The results have also been checked against the force-deflection corridors from the specification document.
This validation work has been carried out in both SMP and MPP versions of LS-DYNA R9.2 and R7.12 to ensure the performance and accuracy.
Specifications
| Element Type | LS-DYNA Release Version | Total Number of Elements | Mass | Regulation Test | Regulation Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shell | LS-DYNA 971, R7.1.2 SMP/MPP | 322876 | – | – | – |
| Solid | LS-DYNA 971, R7.1.2 SMP/MPP | 60022 | – | – | – |
