Abstract

The article is focused on the validation of the full-scale virtual model of a frame offroad vehicle. A high degree of coincidence with the real crash test according to EURONCAP rules is achieved. Modeling the processes of high-speed deformation and damage is a complex procedure, requiring a lot of input data parameters and large computing power. The special emphasis is placed on the ways to achieve the coincidence of the behavior of vehicle virtual elements with the behavior of car elements in the full-scale test.

Keywords: crash test, deformation, finite element, validation, vehicle.
