Vehicle Crash Simulation

Multimatic has extensive experience analyzing full vehicle crash models using LS-Dyna and has the full suite of validated barrier models. Although Multimatic has been retained to analyze numerous vehicles in this way, none can be shown on this web site due to confidentiality. The analyses shown here use a "generic" vehicle. Multimatic achieves excellent correlation between the analysis results and the real world tests (click here to view the PNGV crash simulation).
