An foliated granitic rock is found within the phyllites and schists near the Kabeli bridge within the window. The HHC consists mainly of the garnet, kyanite, sillimanite bearing banded gneisses interbedded with quartzites with incipient traces of mobilization. Detailed petrography of all these rocks are described.展开更多

The geometry model is preprocessed by Hypermesh software. The finite element method solver program selected for the simulation is LS-DYNA. After the crash simulation is carefully analyzed, the frontal crash experiment is aimed to validate the finite element model. The simulation results are basically in agreement with the experimental results. The validation of the finite element model is crucial for the further research in optimization of the automotive structure or lightweighting of the vehicle.展开更多
