Summary: | This article presents passive safety issues of a buggy-type car. The issue has been presented in the context of the dynamic impact analysis of the aluminium frame of the vehicle into a rigid wall. The study was conducted using the finite element method in the Abaqus® software. With regard to numerical calculations, a dynamic impact simulation was performed, which defined the critical areas of the structure. Numerical analysis allowed to obtain both the state of the strain of the frame structure and the characteristics of the construction work during the impact. The results of the research provide high-quality prepared FEM model. |
