Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle performance testing, and in particular to a vehicle collision test system and method based on CAE simulation. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the automobile industry, automobile safety has become a core issue that cannot be ignored in the design and manufacturing process. As an important means to evaluate vehicle safety performance, automobile collision tests have been widely used in the past few decades. Traditional physical collision tests rely on real vehicles and test equipment to test the performance of vehicle structures, occupant protection systems and other safety components by simulating actual collision scenarios. However, this method has disadvantages such as high cost, long cycle, and limited repeatability. Especially in the early stages of automobile design, frequent physical tests are often impractical. Therefore, simulation technology based on Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) has gradually become an important supplement and alternative in the field of automobile collision testing. CAE simulation can analyze the performance of automobiles under various collision conditions efficiently and at low cost in a virtual environment through numerical simulation methods, providing strong support for design optimization and safety verification.
[0003] Efficient and economical evaluation of vehicle safety performance through virtual means makes up for the shortcomings of traditional physical tests and plays a key role in design optimization. With the continuous advancement of computing power and modeling technology, CAE simulation will play a more important role in future automobile development and make greater contributions to improving traffic safety and occupant protection.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing traditional vehicle collision simulation methods are often unable to accurately capture the complex energy distribution and material response characteristics, resulting in a large deviation between the simulation results and the actual collision behavior. The low-precision simulation has the risk of misjudging the deformation or failure of vehicle components. The lack of dynamic optimization in mesh division limits the feasibility of complex collision scenarios under conventional computing conditions. Traditional simulation technology does not adequately consider the nonlinear response of material stiffness and energy dissipation, making it difficult to reflect real physical phenomena such as material softening and enhanced energy dissipation in high-speed collisions, resulting in the problem that deformation predictions are inconsistent with experimental results.

[0024] See attached Figure 2 , which shows a flow chart of a car collision test method based on CAE simulation provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method comprising the following steps: S1. Based on the automobile design drawings and simulation scenes, a three-dimensional geometric model is constructed, and the parameters required for the collision simulation are initialized; based on the parameters of the three-dimensional geometric model and the parameters required for the collision simulation, the initial total kinetic energy is calculated, and the composite energy gradient is calculated by the composite energy gradient adaptive modeling algorithm; Based on the automobile design drawings and simulation scenarios, a digital expression of the automobile is constructed, a three-dimensional geometric model of the automobile is generated, and parameters required for collision simulation are initialized; the parameters of the three-dimensional geometric model of the automobile include but are not limited to basic physical properties and material characteristic parameters of each component of the automobile, such as mass, elastic modulus and yield strength; the parameters required for collision simulation include but are not limited to the distance from the spatial position of each component of the automobile to the collision point, speed, angle between the speed direction and the collision normal, surface area and volume; The initial total kinetic energy is calculated through the basic principle of physics, that is, the kinetic energy formula. Specifically, the kinetic energy of each component of the car is evaluated independently, that is, the kinetic energy value of a single component is obtained by multiplying the mass by the square of the speed and taking half. The kinetic energy values of all components are accumulated to obtain the initial total kinetic energy in joules. The initial total kinetic energy value represents the energy reserve of the car at the initial moment of collision and is the basis for subsequent analysis. The calculation formula is: , in, Represents the initial total kinetic energy in joules (J), which is the energy input in the crash simulation and is used to quantify the energy that the car has in its initial state due to motion; It means the kinetic energy of all car parts is accumulated; Indicates The mass of each component, in kilograms (kg), is specified by the parameters of the 3D geometric model of the vehicle; Indicates The initial velocity of each component at the start of the collision, in meters per second (m / s), specified by the parameters required for the collision simulation; After calculating the initial total kinetic energy, in order to quantify the composite energy gradient of each component of the car, the composite energy gradient adaptive modeling algorithm is used to deeply analyze the distribution law of collision energy among different components of the car and calculate the composite energy gradient; The composite energy gradient adaptive modeling algorithm introduces material characteristic parameters in the parameters of the three-dimensional geometric model of the automobile, including elastic modulus and yield strength. The elastic modulus is measured in Pascals, reflecting the stiffness characteristics of the material when subjected to force, while the yield strength is also measured in Pascals, indicating the maximum stress that the material can withstand. At the same time, the spatial position of the automobile parts is considered, that is, the distance from each automobile part to the collision point is measured in meters. The distance from each automobile part to the collision point directly affects the concentration of energy distribution. The closer the distance is, the greater the impact is. A directional factor is also introduced, that is, the angle between the speed direction of the part and the collision normal, measured in radians, which is adjusted by the cosine function to reflect the directional effect of energy transfer. For example, when the speed direction of the part is completely consistent with the collision normal, the cosine value is 1, and the energy transfer reaches the maximum. When the two are perpendicular, the cosine value is 0, and the energy transfer is zero. The calculation formula of the composite energy gradient is: , in, Indicates The composite energy gradient of each component, in joules per meter (J / m), is used to quantify the energy distribution characteristics of each component of the vehicle; Indicates The kinetic energy term of each component; Indicates The elastic modulus of each component, in Pascal (Pa), reflects the influence of material stiffness on energy response. The higher the material stiffness, the more concentrated the energy transfer. It comes from the material property database; Indicates The distance from the center of each component to the collision point, in meters (m), reflects the effect of energy attenuation with distance. The closer the distance from the center of the component to the collision point, the greater the composite energy gradient; Indicates The yield strength of each component, in Pascal (Pa), reflects the material's ability to resist plastic deformation. The higher the yield strength, the more restricted the energy transfer. It comes from the material property database; Indicates The cosine value of the angle between the velocity direction of each component and the collision normal introduces the directionality of energy transfer. When the velocity direction is consistent with the collision normal, that is, , the energy transfer is strongest; when the velocity direction is perpendicular to the collision normal, that is, , the composite energy gradient is zero; The initial total kinetic energy provides a macroscopic perspective for the overall energy, while the composite energy gradient provides a refined description of the microscopic energy distribution of each component of the vehicle. By quantifying the initial total kinetic energy at the beginning of the collision, a global benchmark is provided for the energy state of the vehicle, which is convenient for evaluating the performance of the vehicle in different collision scenarios. By calculating the composite energy gradient, the non-uniformity of energy distribution can be identified, especially the concentrated energy borne by components close to the collision point and with higher stiffness, which provides a basis for the refined modeling of high stress areas in the simulation, overcomes the assumption of uniform energy distribution in traditional modeling, and improves the consistency between the simulation results and the actual collision behavior. S2. Based on the composite energy gradient, a dynamic grid reconstruction algorithm is used to obtain a grid reconstruction factor; based on the grid reconstruction factor, the initial total kinetic energy and the composite energy gradient, an adaptive deformation calculation algorithm of dynamic energy dissipation and nonlinear stiffness correction is used to obtain the deformation distance of the automobile parts in the collision, and whether the automobile meets the safety standards is evaluated based on the deformation distance; In computer simulation (CAE), the grid is calculated by dividing the car model into small blocks. When the grid is too coarse, the calculation accuracy is insufficient, and when the grid is too fine, the calculation amount is too large. The traditional method assumes that the energy is evenly distributed, ignoring the influence of local stress concentration, resulting in insufficient simulation accuracy. Based on the composite energy gradient, the dynamic grid reconstruction algorithm is used to calculate the grid reconstruction factor through dynamic analysis of energy distribution, thereby optimizing the grid density distribution. The dynamic mesh reconstruction algorithm compares the composite energy gradient of each component of the car with the preset reference energy gradient to measure the force difference of each component of the car, and smoothes the force difference through square root operation to linearly adjust the mesh density. By combining the surface area and volume ratio of each component of the car, it reflects the influence of the geometric characteristics of the component on the mesh division. Components with large surface area and small volume require higher mesh density to capture details. For example, thin plates are more easily deformed than thick plates. The mesh reconstruction factor finally generated is used to guide the dynamic adjustment of the mesh density. The calculation formula of the mesh reconstruction factor is: , in, Indicates The mesh reconstruction factor of each component; Represents the preset reference energy gradient, which is used to standardize the composite energy gradient to make the energy intensity comparable. The unit is joule / meter (J / m). It can be set according to the specific implementation scenario and is not limited here. Indicates The surface area of each component in square meters (m²); Indicates The volume of each component in cubic meters (m³); By dynamically adjusting the grid density, higher resolution is ensured in high-energy concentration areas, thereby more realistically simulating the local stress distribution and deformation behavior of automotive components. At the same time, the allocation efficiency of computing resources is optimized, effectively reducing computing costs and avoiding redundant calculations. This not only shortens the simulation time, but also makes the simulation of complex collision scenarios feasible under conventional hardware conditions, with high engineering practicality.
[0025] In order to overcome the neglect of energy dissipation and nonlinear response of material stiffness in traditional simulation methods and improve the authenticity and accuracy of simulation, based on the grid reconstruction factor, initial total kinetic energy and composite energy gradient, an adaptive deformation calculation algorithm with dynamic energy dissipation and nonlinear stiffness correction is used to accurately calculate the deformation distance of automobile parts in a collision, and evaluate whether the automobile meets the safety standards based on the deformation distance; The adaptive deformation calculation algorithm of dynamic energy dissipation and nonlinear stiffness correction is divided into three main parts: calculation of dynamic energy dissipation factor, calculation of corrected stiffness and calculation of final deformation distance; The calculation of the dynamic energy dissipation factor is used to quantify the proportion of energy reduction due to dissipation during a car collision. The obtained composite energy gradient and grid reconstruction factor are used, and the elastic modulus of the component is introduced as part of the denominator to form a basic ratio, which is then multiplied by an exponential adjustment term. Based on the ratio of the initial speed of the component to a preset reference speed, a value between 0 and 1 is calculated through an exponential function to simulate the nonlinear effect of speed on energy dissipation: when the initial speed is much greater than the preset reference speed, the dissipation effect tends to saturation, and when the initial speed is less than the preset reference speed, the dissipation effect is weak; The modified stiffness is used to characterize the dynamic change of stiffness of automobile parts in collision. The design is based on a physical intuition: in the high energy gradient area, the material may show a phenomenon of reduced stiffness due to stress concentration, while in the low energy gradient area, the stiffness is close to the original value. The exponential function is introduced to ensure the smoothness and nonlinear characteristics of the stiffness change, avoiding the assumption of constant stiffness in traditional methods, so that the stiffness of each component is adjusted to a value that is more in line with the actual collision response; The deformation distance represents the deformation amount of the automobile component in the collision. Starting from the initial total kinetic energy, considering the influence of the dynamic energy dissipation factor, the initial total kinetic energy is multiplied by a term minus the dynamic energy dissipation factor to obtain the remaining effective energy, which is then distributed to the geometric and material properties of the component. Specifically, the product of the surface area, yield strength and modified stiffness of the component is used as the denominator for division operation. The surface area reflects the size of the area of the component that bears the energy, the yield strength measures the ability of the material to resist deformation, and the modified stiffness further adjusts the efficiency of converting energy into deformation; , in, Indicates The deformation distance of each component, in meters (m), is used as the simulation result to evaluate the collision performance of the car; Indicates The dynamic energy dissipation factor of each component reflects the proportion of energy dissipated due to inelastic effects such as friction and heat consumption in a collision. The calculation formula is: , in, Indicates the value used to measure the The energy concentration of each component and the material's ability to resist deformation; represents an exponential adjustment term, which is used to describe the contribution of velocity to energy dissipation. Using an exponential decay function, when the initial velocity increases, the dissipation ratio approaches 1, reflecting that energy dissipation is more significant in high-speed collisions; Indicates the preset reference speed in meters per second (m / s), which is used for normalization operations and provides a comparison benchmark; Indicates The corrected stiffness of each component is in Pascal (Pa) and is calculated as: , in, represents the correction factor, which reflects the nonlinear effect that the corrected stiffness decreases with increasing energy. When it is larger, the corrected stiffness is significantly reduced, which is used to simulate material softening; By introducing the dynamic energy dissipation factor and the corrected stiffness, the traditional method overcomes the neglect of energy dissipation and nonlinear response of stiffness, making the calculation of component deformation distance closer to the physical behavior in actual collision, which is crucial for evaluating automobile safety performance (such as NCAP standards) and can effectively reduce dependence on expensive physical tests and reduce R&D costs.
