Low Speed Impact Test of Heavy Duty Bumper

Abstract

Bumpers are basic parts introduced at the front and backsides of a vehicle to secure, the auto body, frill, and travellers amid low speed impacts. A bumper is a shield made of steel, aluminium, elastic, or plastic that is mounted on the front and back of a traveller auto. Bumpers are for the most part made out of bars, stays, safeguards and sash. At the point when a low speed impact happens, the guard framework assimilates the stun to secure or decrease harm to the auto. A few guards utilize vitality safeguards or sections and others are made with froth padding material. An automotive bumper reduces damage by absorbing kinetic energy so that the load transmitted to the body frame is minimized. As a result, bumper systems have evolved into complex engineered systems. The front bumper is the part, during a front crash that has contact with the opponent vehicle. The structural requirements of the bumper are very multifaceted. In component tests at the drop tower facility or in the crash test facility, which reflect different crash repair tests, flexural rigidity of the bumper as well as the deformation force level of the absorption elements can be determined. On servo-hydraulic test benches these tests can be accomplished quasi-statically
