Arup Cellbond Barrier Models
A range of robustly validated finite element models for LS-DYNA.
Full Width Compatibility Barrier
This barrier model is a Solid element model.
The Full Width Compatibility Barrier was proposed by the Vehicle Crash Compatibility Project (VC-Compat) and is developed by Cellbond on behalf of TRL (Transport Research Laboratory, UK).
This barrier was been developed to work alongside the EEVC Frontal Offset Barrier to fulfil needs for research on the compatibility of vehicle fronts, their aggressivity and partner protection.
Validation
Two tests have been selected for correlating the LS-DYNA FWCB model: a flat wall impact at 17kph and the TRL Sled Test at 40kph. The tests involve the impactors on a trolley impacting the fixed FWCB barrier. For the Flat Wall case, the correlation has been carried out using test results provided by Cellbond. The test results used in the Sled Test correlation have been taken from a number of reports published by TRL Limited.
The force – deflection curves generated from model’s analyses and tests have been compared.
This validation work has been carried out in both SMP and MPP versions of LS-DYNA R7.1.2 to ensure the correct performance and accuracy.
