Recent Investigations of Side Curtain Airbag Deployment Simulation using CPM

Recently, Honda has shifted to a vi_ual development process to shorten the development term. In addition, the virtual development process has also been applied in the crash safety one. for this reason, it is necessary to build more accurate simulation modelling method. There are some reports, in which, airbag modelling Methods about gas flow has several technical issues [1] [2] [3I, in the crash safety components. Therefore, this research focuses on simulating the airbag folding properties and deployment behaviour. This study introduces the modelling method of the side curtain airbag (SCAB) with its complicated structure, leading to the accurate deployment simulation.
