Crash simulations, are used to study and optimize the behavior of structures in collisions in the automotive, aerospace, consumer goods, and medical technology industries, among others.With DEP simulations, we can calculate, analyze and simulate the crash and its effects in terms of the material behavior, structural formations, joints & fixtures and other factors in a realistic manner, ensuring that product development meets the safety and industry standards. Some of the major objectives of Crash analysis are:

  • Ensuring safety of the driver
  • Material selection on the basis of strength
  • Minimizing the weight of the vehicle without compromising safety
  • Reducing the cost for actual crash testing
  • Evaluating frame crashworthiness and investigating ways to improve the design
