Introduction Introduction
- The comparison of severity indices and
time histories betw een test and simulation requires that the tool used to extract these information w orks in a proper w ay.
- The definition and verification of
numerical data acquisitions and numerical transducers is then one the steps needed to assess the validation of the model.

Measure of severity indices and Measure of severity indices and time histories time histories
- The numerical data acquisition must be
able to acquire data that can reconstruct properly the physics of the phenomenon.
- The definition of the transducer must be
comparable to the behavior of a typical transducer used during crash tests.

Numerical data acquisition. Numerical data acquisition.
- In order to collect the acceleration and
the velocity-time histories of the vehicle an accelerometer sensor is included in the vehicle model.
- This element is represented by a rigid
brick that must be properly connected to a massive part of the vehicle, usually by means of a rigid link, in order to attenuate high frequencies components.

Influence of sampling frequency Influence of sampling frequency
- Round Robin scenario. Small vehicle 100 km/h 20° rigid
barrier.
- Ls-dyna 970 solver up to 5434a version.
- To verify the behavior of the numerical data acquisition
system, accelerations have been sampled at different frequencies.
- Three output frequencies w ere considered:
- 854 kHz (sampling time equal to the integration timestep),
- 100 kHz
- 10 kHz.
- The data output file w ere used to compute the occupant
risk factors.
- The output data w ere initially filtered w ith a standard
CFC180 filter and then processed by the softw are.

Comparison. Comparison.
- The acceleration measures as the severity indices are
different even if they are referred to the same impact.
- How can w e define w hich is the proper acceleration and
the w rong one and w hy an acceleration sampled during a numerical simulation can be w rong?
- Besides the acceleration time history also the velocity
and displacement time histories can be obtained from these nodes.
- To understand w hich is the right acceleration and
w hich is the w rong, w e must verify that:
– the velocity and the displacement obtained integrating the acceleration – And – the velocity and displacement directly sampled. – Must be equivalent

- Acceleration sampled at 854 Khz and 100Khz
are able to reconstruct correctly the velocity and the displacement of the vehicle.
- Acceleration sampled at 10 Khz (standard
sampling rate used for experimental testing) is not able to reconstruct the motion of the vehicle.
- Signals sampled at 10 Khz have aliasing

Data acquisition conclusion. Data acquisition conclusion.
- This problem show ed that numerical data
acquisition has the same typical problems of the experimental data acquisition.
- Care must be taken for the definition of the
sampling rate.
- This problem is mesh sensitive and code sensitive
(Pam crash has pre-sampling filtering).
- The requirement is that, to prove the proper data
acquisition, the reconstruction of the motion must be demonstrated starting from acceleration time histories.

capability of our numerical data acquisition the problem is shifted to the transducer itself.
- This numerical transducer must be
compared to a standard real transducer.
- If w e w ant to compare these tw o output
