abstract="This paper describes the new finite element modelling method of aluminium honeycomb using shell elements. It is our new modelling method in which the cell size of the honeycomb structure is enlarged to increase minimum mesh size, and compressive strength is controlled by thickness of shell elements. New modelling was applied to an offset deformable barrier (ODB) model and a full vehicle crash analysis was performed. The result of offset frontal collision analysis with a new honeycomb model showed better correlation with the test result than the result of previous simulations.<p />",
