Description
Sensory based methods as well as approximation methods are currently being used to determine the impact force and the crush energy pertained to vehicles’ collision. This paper describes a method, based on Abductive Networks that can be used to develop explicit models by which the above quantities can be estimated. Similar to Neural Networks Abductive Networks are “trained”, using experimental data and upon convergence, a model is established. Comparisons between the results, obtained by the different methods, indicate that the models obtained with this method provide more accurate results.
