Virtual Crash Test Dummies: A Data Management Test

Using its SLM tool to automate and manage huge data sources, SIMULIA accelerates the qualification process for its Abaqus FEA crash test dummy models from weeks to days.

Physical crash dummies may have dozens of sensors and other sophisticated mechanical parts, but their digital brethren can be just as complicated. With more than 100,000 elements and dozens of validation tests to manage, companies delivering the complex FEA simulation models that lie at the heart of the virtual crash test dummies are starting to leverage a new type of software platform to facilitate the process.
