Cost-effective safety design

MADYMO is the worldwide standard software for analysing and optimizing occupant safety designs. It is without rival for its accuracy, efficiency and versatility.

Using MADYMO, researchers and engineers can model, thoroughly analyse and optimize safety designs early in the development process. This reduces the expense and time involved in building and testing prototypes. Adopting MADYMO also minimises the risk of making design changes late in development.

So, for new or improved vehicle models and components, MADYMO ensures substantial cost savings and shortens the time-to-market.

New in MADYMO

With pre- and even non-crash scenarios becoming more important for vehicle occupant safety, the number of relevant loading scenarios increases heavily and the duration of simulated vehicle crash events becomes longer. MADYMO, with its accurate yet CPU-efficient solver and dummy & human models, its built-in sensing & control functionality and its interfaces for co-simulation with other software, is the ideal CAE tool for today’s vehicle and restraint systems design engineer.

MADYMO Solver

The MADYMO Solver is a flexible multi-physics simulation engine that uniquely combines the capabilities of multibody (MB), finite element (FE) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in a single CAE solver. This makes the MADYMO Solver a highly efficient tool for design and analysis of complex dynamic systems.

MADYMO Coupling

MADYMO can be interfaced with the FE structural codes LS-DYNA, PAM-CRASH, RADIOSS and ABAQUS. This enables engineers to use MADYMO features that are not available or do not have the required capabilities in their preferred FE code, like the MADYMO quality dummy models and airbag deployment modelling techniques.
