Abstract
An overview on some recent trends and advances in the crash simulation and design of transport vehicles is given. This overview highlights selected algorithmic solver code advances in the used simulation tools, the use and the modelling of new materials for crash energy absorption, concept car design techniques, massive parallel programming and performance gains, side impact barrier modelling, mechanical occupant surrogate modelling (dummies), biomechanical models of human parts, as well as extensions of crash simulation techniques to the simulation of drop tests for appliances, shock absorption of a Mars lander, etc. The shown examples and descriptions testify the extreme progress and diversification crash simulation techniques have undergone in the past ten years.
