Crashworthiness analysis and multi-objective optimization of a commercial vehicle frame: A mixed meta-modeling-based method

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2018
In this study, a mixed meta-modeling-based optimization method has been proposed and applied to a commercial vehicle for crashworthiness design subjected to the frontal crash. A full-scale finite element model of the commercial vehicle has been built and

Stochastic simulation for crashworthiness [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Engineering Software, 2004
This paper describes the M-Xplore extension of the Radioss software. The module contains facilities for the exploration of a parameterized finite element model design space. It supports facilities for interactive choice of variables and responses, definition of a sampling on a design space, automatic submission of the computations, and post-processing ...

Microstructure–Mechanical Response Relationship in Discontinuous Fiber‐Reinforced SMC Composites: Damage Mechanisms

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Architecture of SMC composites. ABSTRACT The mechanical performance of sheet molding compounds (SMCs) is dependent on microstructural characteristics determined by material composition and processing conditions. The study investigates standard SMCs, advanced SMCs (A‐SMCs), and low‐density SMCs (LD‐SMCs) under quasi‐static and fatigue loading to ...

Integrating Crashworthiness into the Concept Design Phase of Tanker Structural Design Through Surrogate-Based Optimization

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
A key limitation of conventional early-stage oil tanker structural design is that the accidental limit state performance is rarely included as an explicit design objective, even though major topology and arrangement decisions are taken before detailed ...

Ultrahigh Stiffness and Energy Absorption Properties of Isotropic Metallic Closed Cell Microlattices

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
True closed cell microlattices without holes are fabricated for the first time using a novel Laser Sheet Fusion additive manufacturing technique. These microlattices exhibited isotropy in stiffness and surprisingly, strength and plasticity as well, despite orientation‐dependent failure mechanisms. Furthermore, material work hardening is shown to be key

Press Hardening for Sustainable Lightweight Chassis Design in Heavy‐Duty Vehicles: A Material Performance and Life Cycle Assessment Approach

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
The article explores how high‐strength steels and press hardening revolutionize lightweight chassis design for heavy‐duty vehicles. It reveals that press hardened steels combined with shot peening can cut weight by up to 34% and reduce environmental impact by 21%–32%.
