Abstract
In a certain vehicle of Dongfeng Passenger Vehicle Company (DFPV), a new design of integrated hot stamping B-pillar reinforcement panel is introduced to replace the original design of two cold stamping parts connecting by spot-weld. A further light-weight design by thickness thinning is also attempted. All the schemes are validated by hot stamping process simulation and vehicle side impact simulation. The results show that by using hot-stamping steel of the same thickness as the original design, the performance of anti-vehicle side impact is improved; and an equivalent anti-side impact performance can be achieved by appropriate thickness reduction, while the weight of the part is lightened.
