Crash Safety CAE Analysis
Making Vehicles with Enhanced Safety
Significant improvements in vehicle safety performance have been achieved due to the implementation of crash safety regulations in various countries. However, addressing diverse crash scenarios and pedestrian protection forms, including NCAP compliance in each region, is necessary. Reliable performance prediction through crash safety CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) is expected to shorten development schedules and reduce crash test costs.
Case 1
Lack of Know-How in Crash Safety CAE Analysis
There is a desire to conduct crash safety CAE analysis, but due to lack of experience, there is no know-how on aspects such as "What resolution should the mesh be created with?" and "What are the appropriate boundary conditions?"
Case 2
Failure to Meet Criteria
It is understood that the criteria are not met as a result of crash CAE analysis, but it is unclear where to make improvements to achieve better results.
Case 3
Meeting Criteria but Lacking Testing Facilities
Although the criteria are met through crash safety CAE analysis, there are no crash test facilities available, making it impossible to conduct tests in-house.
Case 4
Insufficient Resources for Extensive Analysis
While CAE analysis can be performed, the increase in destinations and classifications means that it cannot be managed solely with in-house resources.
Our Services
Comprehensive Support from Model Creation to Testing
SCAE experts, well-versed in crash safety, conduct crash safety CAE analysis after hearing the requirements. Based on crash scenarios and current vehicle 3D data, support is provided from analysis model creation to analysis report preparation. If real vehicle crash test results under the same conditions are available, correlation can also be performed with the analysis model. Additionally, countermeasure proposals based on analysis results are provided, and support is offered until the criteria are met. Through SCAE's partner companies, it is also possible to conduct crash tests and vehicle modifications.

Features
Experts in Crash Analysis and Vehicle Design
Experts from OEMs, together with ESPs (Engineering Service Providers) with proven track records in crash safety CAE analysis, conduct everything from model creation to countermeasure consideration. By supporting with SCAE experts, the burden on customers to achieve crash safety criteria is reduced.

Comprehensive Support from Upstream to Downstream
Support is provided not only for CAE analysis but also for subsequent countermeasure consideration and real vehicle verification tests. By bringing together ESPs specializing in each area, one-stop support is offered.

Guidance on Latest Regulatory Trends and NCAP Situations
Utilizing Sumitomo Corporation's global network, support is provided based on the latest trends in regulations and standards in Europe, the United States, and China.
