Research on Frontal Collision Reconstruction Model Based on Coupling of PCCRASH and MADYMO

In this paper, a frontal collision simulation model is established to reconstruct frontal collision accident, by using the coupling of PC-CRASH and MADYMO software. The coupling model has two important input parameters to study: the acceleration waveform of the vehicle and the occupant constraint system parameters. Firstly, the vehicle motion is reconstructed by using the classical impact model in PCCRASH, and then the acceleration curve is input into the occupant constraint system model in MADYMO to reconstruct the occupant motion and injury. Finally, the reliability of the model is verified by typical accident cases.
