Automated material card derivation for crash simulation

Material card calibration for crash simulation

The development of material cards for crash applications is a very challenging task due to the complexity of modelling the highly non-linear material behaviour. A closed process flow between material characterisation tests and an automated procedure for material card optimisation was developed and combined for an automated material card derivation process.
