DESIGN OPTIMIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF A NEW REAR UNDERRUN PROTECTIVE DEVICE FOR TRUCK
2010
In this paper the optimization process of a new High Energy Absorption Rear Underrun Protective Device called HEARUPD is discussed. The main objectives of the HEARUPD design optimization process have been related to the reduction in car decelerations (high crashworthiness) and avoiding the car underrun (high structure stability). In the implemented optimization process, the crash between an economy car (GEO Metro) and the rear part of a truck has been simulated by numerical models. A linear function of the decelerations measured on the car has been used as objective to minimize, the main dimensional values of the rear underrun protective device, instead, have been chosen as design variables…
Splines in convex sets under constraints of two‐sided inequality type in a hyperplane
2008
The problem of minimization of a smoothing functional under inequality constraints is considered in a hyperplane. The conditions of the existence of a solution are obtained and some properties of this solution are investigated. It is proved that the solution is a spline. The method for its construction is suggested. First Published Online: 14 Oct 2010
