TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of automobile collision safety, in particular to a prediction method for key parameters of a CAE inverse side column impact sled test. BACKGROUND
[0002] Traffic accident statistics show that frontal collision and side collision are the two most common collision modes, and the mortality rate of side collision is higher than that of frontal collision. When a passenger car is hit from the side, there are few side energy absorption components, and the structure deforms more, directly pressing the survival space of the occupant, resulting in a higher mortality rate of the occupant in side impact. Side column impact is a special form of side impact, and the contact area is small during the impact, and the deformation of the side ring body is large. And because of the high intrusion, the occupant is more likely to collide with the inner door panel, b-pillar and other parts during the impact, endangering the safety of the occupant.
[0003] Since 2009, Euro-NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) has made real vehicle side pole collision a mandatory test item. The whole vehicle side column impact test is expensive, which brings great pressure to automobile manufacturers, and enterprises can only choose to use CAE method for pre-research, which greatly reduces the accuracy and effect of the test. The sled test is an effective method to reduce costs, and now there are related side column impact intrusion devices developed, but the input parameters of the device, the connection with the vehicle body parts and the relative position are unclear, and further comprehensive exploration of the related key information is urgently needed to guide the construction of the side column impact sled. SUMMARY
