6. Methods for efficient modelling of progressive failure in laminated fibre-reinforced composites
Abstract : To meet increasing demands on reduced CO2 emissions, the automotive industry is currently very active in research to reduce vehicle weight by incorporating laminated composites (primarily carbon fibre-reinforced polymers) into structural components. Historically, composite materials have mainly been used in the aerospace industry, whereby CAE-based design and development tools for composite structures have been developed primarily to the specific needs and requirements in this industry.

7. Driver behavior models for evaluating automotive active safety: From neural dynamics to vehicle dynamics
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is how to realistically model driver behavior in computer simulations of safety critical traffic events, an increasingly important tool for evaluating automotive active safety systems. By means of a comprehensive literature review, it was found that current driver models are generally poorly validated on relevant near-crash behavior data. READ MORE

8. Safety Evaluation Using Counterfactual Simulations: The use of computational driver behavior models in crash avoidance systems and virtual simulations with optimal subsampling
Abstract : Traffic safety is a problem worldwide. In-vehicle conflict and crash avoidance systems have been under development and assessment for some time, as integral parts of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Automated Driving Systems (ADS). READ MORE

9. Stochastic finite element simulations of real life frontal crashes : With emphasis on chest injury mechanisms in near-side oblique loading conditions
Abstract : Introduction. Road traffic injuries are the eighth leading cause of death globally and the leading cause of death among young people aged 15-29. Of individuals killed or injured in road traffic injuries, a large group comprises occupants sustaining a thorax injury in frontal crashes. The elderly are particularly at risk, as they are more fragile. READ MORE

10. On efficient modelling of progressive damage in composite laminates using an equivalent single-layer approach
Abstract : In order to reduce the weight and subsequently the fuel consumption of their vehicles, the automotive industry is currently very active in research to incorporate laminated composites of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) into structural components. This effort is a reaction to the increasing demands from regulatory bodies aimed at reducing the CO2 emissions from the transportation sector. READ MORE
