Arup, in collaboration with Cellbond, has developed the LS-DYNA shell model of NHTSA Side and Rear Impact Barrier.
The model is an upgrade of the already available solid model, and not only shows good force-displacement correlations compared with test results, but also offers a more realistic barrier deformation behaviour.
This was achieved through extensive material calibration and component/full barrier validation (facilitated by a comprehensive testing campaign).
