Design of a structural element as an anticrashing member

A. Carnicero J.R. Jiménez-Octavio O. López-García

July 2005 - July 2005

Funding entity Protec-Fire


The objective of the project is to certify, by means of a finite element computation, the validity of the design of a trunk of a firemen truck. This one aside from being used for transports of different objects must serve, in addition, as a lateral anticrashing element. The fulfillment of the requirements established by European Director 89/297/CEE (about lateral protection of lorries) has been certified.
