Addressing positioning challenges for ATDs and HBMs: The ANSA approach in safety simulation

As presented by Thanasis Fokylidis from BETA CAE Systems at the 9th BEFORE REALITY Conference.
Abstract:
ATDs are a crucial component of safety simulations, widely utilized by analysts studying occupant safety in vehicles for decades. Similarly, human body models have gained popularity in recent years, offering a more realistic representation in safety simulations. Analysts require precise and effortless positioning tools for both ATDs and human body models. ANSA provides a tool for ATDs that can swiftly and accurately position the respective FE model's limbs either manually or using the marionette method with solver aid. Additionally, ANSA in conjunction with it's multi-body dynamic solver and advanced morphing algorithms allows for the straightforward positioning of human body models. ANSA can address the needs of safety analysts, with the possibility of extending existing tools for more intricate industrial applications. This presentation details the current status of the aforementioned tools and examples of industrial applications that require their extension.
