Crash Safety

Latest Advanced Technology and Tasks in Automobile Engineering

Seminar 6: Crash Safety

The full frontal ridge barrier test of a car (mass m) with an initial velocity of V0 was modeled by a simple spring-mass model.  The stiffness of the car during loading is assumed to be k.  Assuming that there was no rebound, calculate the car acceleration, velocity, and displacement as a function of time t; and draw a schematic graph of the acceleration, velocity, and displacement as a function of time.
