  • You can collaborate with different professional teams.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct a state-of-the-art review of methods for measuring and predicting overall vehicle intrusion in simulation and testing.
  • Build a database of vehicles representing different technologies (ICE, HEV, PHEV, and EV) and analyze observed differences in frontal and rear crashes.
  • Identify the most influential structural parameters, including body architecture, materials, mass positions, traction battery, powertrains, longitudinal beams, crossmembers, and load paths.
  • Analyze PAM-CRASH crash simulation results to characterize deformation and energy-absorption mechanisms.
  • Conduct parametric analyses and design-of-experiments studies to quantify the influence of key vehicle parameters.
  • Compare numerical results with available test data and identify sources of discrepancies between calculation and reality.
  • Develop indicators and methodologies to improve prediction of overall vehicle intrusion from early design phases.
  • Document modeling best practices and recommendations for different vehicle technologies.

Desired Qualifications

  • A first experience with the PAM-CRASH explicit simulation software is appreciated.
