With increasing road accidents, researchers found a need to reduce the impact which gets transferred to the driver and passengers during a collision. Chassis is the main rigid component which transmits the impact or jerk to the entire vehicle. So, the changes can be done in the frontal head tube shape in order to achieve maximum energy absorption. The objective of this article is to produce a thin-walled impact absorption structure. The unique strength absorption, the maximum crushing force, all through the frontal impact are the primary dimensional parameters of the performance. Explicit dynamics feature of Ansys can be used and the results of Peak Force (PF) and Specific Energy Absorption (SEA) can be acquired virtually. Based on the results, the shape with the highest amount of SEA can be concluded as the best shape so that it can be used to absorb the maximum energy while collision of the vehicle takes place. The results show an increment of 30% in SEA.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
