SAFETY/STRUCTURE
140 G 140 E 140 D 140 E
Occupant Protection: Rear Impact
and Side Impact (SS506)
This session will have presentations that
address advancing the science of occupant
safety in vehicle rear impact collisions.
8:00 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.
Vehicle Aerodynamics (Part 7 of
8): CFD Methods Development
(SS800)
In this session the use of the Adjoint Method
and its role in vehicle shape optimization will
be explored. New simulation approaches
will be presented, including Partially-
Averaged Navier-Stokes (PANS) and a novel
RANS and Implicit LES Hybrid Turbulence
Model. The use of CFD for Cooling Drag
sensitivity analysis is also discussed.
8:00 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.
Vehicle Dynamics, Stability and
Control (Part 3 of 3) (SS900)
This session is focused on vehicle dynamics
and controls using modeling and simulation,
and experimental analysis of passenger
cars, heavy trucks, and wheeled military
vehicles. This session addresses active
and passive safety systems to mitigate
rollover, yaw instability and braking issues;
driving simulators and hardware-in-theloop
systems; suspension kinematics and
compliance, steering dynamics, advanced
active suspension technologies; and tire
force and moment mechanics.
8:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
Vehicle Aerodynamics (Part 8 of
8): Fundamental Aerodynamics
(Part 1 of 2) (SS800)
It’s vital that we continue to explore
fundamental aerodynamic effects and
processes, to underpin future vehicle
development. This two-part session
underlines the importance of simplified
models in building our understanding
of wake structure, wheel rotation,
cooling flows, onset flow turbulence and
crosswinds. Beyond this, careful analysis
of existing cars is used to provide further
insights into multiple-vehicle platooning, and
drag reduction technologies.
10:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
