Abstract

Car accidents are happening every day. We must take into account the statistics – ten thousand dead and hundreds of thousands to million wounded each year. These numbers call for the necessity to improve the safety of automobiles during accidents. Automotive bumper system is one of the key systems in passenger cars which helps to protect the vehicle during impacts A bumper is a shield made of steel, aluminum, rubber, or plastic that is mounted on the front and rear of a passenger car. The goal of this paper is to design a bumper with minimum weight. The bumper model was made on software which is SOLID WORKS. The crash test was conducted on software LS-DYNA. It is widely used by the automotive industry to analyze vehicle design. It accurately predicts a car's behaviour in collision.
