Abstract

A methodology for optimizing design parameters for vehicle safety is described. Based upon a limiting performance design philosophy, the methodology characterizes changes in the structure and restraint system of an image vehicle which lead to progressive improvements in vehicle crashworthiness. Emphasis is given to the computer program package which supports the optimization methodology.
