ABSTRACT:
A method of simulating a vehicle impact that involves generating a first finite element model of the vehicle, a multi-body model, and a partial vehicle finite element model. The method also involves generating a coupled model that includes at least a portion of the multi-body model and at least a portion of the partial vehicle finite element model. Additionally, the method includes running at least one impact simulation with the coupled model to thereby identify the effects of the impact on the vehicle and/or the occupant.
