Abstract :
The crash passive safety, especially the frontal crash safety is an important aspect to reflect the safety of the automobile. According to the 90° frontal crash requirement specified in China´s frontal crash regulation CMVDR, this research analyzes the finite element analysis of a coach body crashing into the rigid wall at the speed of 48km/h and improves the result of analysis in order to make the coach crash safety meet the requirement in the regulation.
