Abstract
The development of car bodies is much affected by safety
requirements, such as the FMVSS 208. Package is of major
importance. In other words, space must be made available, affecting
the dimensions of car front and rear end as well as the passenger
compartment.
It is our objective to provide basic information about the
optimal structure conditions, to study and implement better
development tools, and to make use of any new methods for the
benefit of the product and the safety of its users.
As a result of our development, we came across the application
of analytical methods predicting rather than retesting the
component form, gauge, material, and their influence on car crash
behavior.
