Abstract

With the development in features of automobiles, safety is an important concern. Research is continuously made to improve the safety and to develop a device for the same. The crash box is one of the safety device attached to the vehicle body generally at front side which tends to deform during the frontal collision of vehicle and safeguards the passenger and vehicle component. In order to improve the safety of passengers and vehicle the author proposed a work on analysis and development of vehicle crash box of three different shape namely square, rectangular and circular and analysis is made using ANSYS in to study the energy absorption during collision and deforming behavior of crash box under the same impact loading condition. The crash box with minimum deformation and maximum energy absorption is then selected as an optimum design of crash box.
