Abstract

The deformed degree of car body varies largely with the collision part from side collision of car-to-car. In case of deformation of car body caused by collision, the movement is different as speed energy changes to strain energy. Generally, in the analysis of traffic accident, the movement of car after the collision is analyzed by law of conservation of motion and the error of energy absorption rate along the deformation of car body can be calibrated by inputting coefficient of restitution, but it is current situation that coefficient of restitution applied by referring to the research results of forward collision and backward collision because the research results of side collision is rare. Vehicle model of finite element method applied by structure of car body and materials of each component was analyzed by explicit finite element method, and coefficient of restitution and collision detection time along contact part of side collision was drawn by analyzing the results. Analysis result acquired through the law of conservation momentum by applying finally-computed coefficient of restitution and crash detection time compared to collision result of actual vehicle. As a result, the reliability of analysis was higher than the existing analysis method were acquired when applying the drawn initial input value that used finite element method analysis model.

차대차의 측면충돌에서 충돌부위에 따라 차체의 변형정도는 크게 달라진다. 충돌로 인하여 차체에 변형이 일어나는 경우에 속도에너지가 변형에너지로 전달되어 거동이 달라진다. 일반적으로 교통사고분석에서는 충돌 후 차량의 거동을 운동량 보존법칙으로 분석하며 차체의 변형에 따른 에너지 흡수량은 반발계수를 입력하여 그 오차를 보정할 수 있으나 측면충돌에 대한 연구결과는 그다지 많지 않으므로 전방충돌과 후방추돌에 대한 연구결과를 참고해서 반발계수를 적용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 차체의 구조와 각 부품의 재질을 적용한 유한요소 차량모델을 외연적 유한요소법으로 해석하였으며, 그 결과를 분석하여 측면충돌에서 차량의 접촉부위에 따른 반발계수와 충돌감지시간을 도출하였다. 최종적으로 산출된 반발계수와 충돌감지시간을 적용하여 운동량보존법칙에 의해 얻어진 해석결과를 실제 차량의 충돌결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과로 유한요소해석 모델을 이용하여 도출한 초기 입력값을 적용했을 때 기존의 분석기법보다 해석의 신뢰도가 높다는 결과를 얻게 되었다.
