Support

The models in this library were developed on the Win32 platform using SISAME and SISAMEM v.2. The extracted model characteristics can vary somewhat depending on the platform and version of the SISAME applications used.


Analytic Models

These are simple analytic models including simulation models that are used to generate the "test" data from which models are extracted. These cases can be used to verify a SISAME installation, to experiment with basic SISAME modeling, and for analytic studies of SISAME modeling ideas or techniques.

LE One-mass linear elastic model
SI One-mass segmented inelastic model
A Simple vehicle frontal impact model
B Simple vehicle frontal impact model with contact interface
VTV Simple vehicle-to-vehicle frontal impact model
Driver Sled test with simple restrained occupant model
Analytic All Analytic models

Frontal Full-Engagement Models

These are low-complexity frontal full-engagement impact models developed from vehicle-to-barrier (VTB) tests in the NHTSA vehicle crash test database. Multiple-event models are provided in addition to the models obtained from single test events.

Accord 1991 Honda Accord
Caravan 1992 Dodge Caravan and 1992 Plymouth Voyager
Cavalier 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier
Celica 1987 Toyota Celica
Excel 1987 Hyundai Excel GLS
Explorer 1995 Ford Explorer
Lumina 1995 Chevrolet Lumina
Metro 1991 and 1992 Geo Metro
Saab 9000 1989 Saab 9000
Taurus 1990 and 1993 Ford Taurus

Frontal Offset Models

These are low-complexity frontal 50% offset impact models developed from vehicle-to-barrier (VTB) tests in the NHTSA vehicle crash test database. Multiple-event models are provided in addition to the models obtained from single test events.
