Abstract

In the article a computer simulation of vehicle collision was prepared using the PC-Crash 8.0 software. The results of this simulation were compared to analytical calculations by Routh method with the use of the coefficient of restitution for deformations or velocities. The equations of motion during the crash were formulated in reference to the senses of the vectors. The use mesh based model of a crash was considered, for the stiffness of car bodies in both models was not known.Analysis concerning the chosen aspects of the consequences of car crash was run, mainly due to the assumption of the roughness of vehicle bodies. The coefficient of restitution for the tangential direction was considered in order to make the crash model more realistic.
