Samenvatting
Simultaneous engineering of the occupant protection package and the vehicle structural crashworthiness is currently the fastest and most cost-effective development route. These parallel streams of activity can each benefit from extensive use of computer modelling to reduce the time and cost involved in attaining development targets. This paper concentrates on the implementation of passive driver and passenger restraint systems for the Morgan Sports Car, a project which demonstrates the benefits created by extensive use of computer modelling.
