An overview of the main verification methods of the computer simulation results of bus rollover is provided in the article. A bus section rollover test is conducted. A comparison between calculation and experiment results is performed. Features of bus section motion, which affect the construction deformation value, are analyzed on the basis of received good convergence between calculation and test results. The mathematical model of planar motion of the bus section until impact with ditch surface is given. This model can be used to verify values of the center of gravity velocities and accelerations of the bus section, obtained as a result of an FE (finite element) simulation.展开更多

In this re- spect manufacturing technology has to adapt to the altered (and typically reduced) formability and weldability of modern high strength steel. However, this is a rather passive approach from a manufacturing point of view. An indeed much more powerful approach is to generate synergies between innovative manufacturing technology, design and material enabling additional weight savings and efficiency gains. Laser-based material processing, in particular laser welding, offers a wide range of opportunities in this sense. Furthermore, hot stamping and roll forming open up new possibilities for advanced manufacturing of commercial vehicle components. Applications and examples of these technologies will be given in terms of producing innovative semi-products as well as final components.展开更多

An overall judgment on the situation 2006 saw the rapid growth of passenger vehicles, with the production capacity putting into use rose from less than 70 percent to around 80 percent. That with light commercial vehicles was similar too. The situation in 2005 and 2006 showed that there are no evidential overdone production capacity.展开更多
