Selected problems of motor vehicle maintenance after side impact collision

摘要

Over the years certain amount of works have been devoted to the selected aspects of motor vehicle collision modeling. Also, in some previous works by the author of this paper the selected problems related to collision modelling have been included. Those papers concerned mostly relations of the obtained crash simulation results to analytical results based on the Routh method, including restitution of the velocities normal and tangential to the plane of crash common for both vehicles involved in the accident. The aim of this paper is to present the selected problems related to the side impact motor vehicle collision modeling, which can be considered as a cause for certain diagnostic problems related to further maintenance of such vehicle after repair.
