          Abstract

          In literature, a lot of research works have been presented on crashworthiness in order to develop crash performance of vehicles and thin-wall structures. In this research, a new hybrid optimization algorithm based on gravitational search algorithm and Nelder-Mead algorithm is introduced to improve crash performance of vehicles during frontal impact. The results show that the hybrid approach is very effective to develop crash performance of the vehicle components and thin-wall structures.

          Kurzfassung

          In der Literatur wurden immense Forschungsarbeiten in Bezug auf das Crashverhalten gezeigt, um die Crashperformanz von Fahrzeugen und Crashboxen zu verbessern. In den diesem Beitrag zugrunde liegenden Forschungsarbeiten wurde ein neues Crashboxdesign entwickelt, das auf dem Gravitationssuch- und Nelder-Mead-Algorithmus basiert, um die Crashperformanz von Fahrzeugen beim Frontalaufprall zu verbessern. Hierfür wurden die maximale Spitzenkraft und der Betrag der Energieabsorption als objektive Funktionen gewählt. Die numerischen Studien beinhalten die Bestimmung der Energieabsorptionscharakteristika verschiedener Geometrien, wie zum Beispiel Trigger der Crashboxen. Die Untersuchungen zeigen, dass sich der Hybrid-Ansatz als sehr effektiv bei der Crashperformanzverbesserung von Automobilteilen und Crashboxen erweist.
