Abstract

- Automotive electronics can produce an unprecedented level of passenger comfort and optimized performance of engine and components. However, the increasing intricacy of these electronic devices makes them more susceptible to damage due to thermal loads, mechanical drops, and engine vibrations. While physical handling of automotive components is comparatively rare, the weight and complexity of specific components such as the ECU, power module, and sensor modules, makes any drop functionally fatal. Simulation approach is considered to be essential in solving these problems by minimizing costs and effort. This paper attempts to solve the issue of mechanical drops using an explicit dynamics finite element analysis solver. Moreover, simplification methods are applied to further minimize solution costs.
