Early Increase of DesignMaturity of Restraint SystemComponents in the Reduced Prototype Vehicle Development Process
Course Description The number of hardware prototypes available for the devel- opment of restraint systems and restraint system compo- nents is declining steadily due to an increasing cost pressure in automotive development. In the project schedule the availability of hardware (restraint system components and / or vehicle environments) shifts to the late vehicle develop- ment phases. As a result, ensuring the required degree of ma- turity of restraint system components, in addition to the sole functional development of seatbelts and airbag, necessitates new strategies and development paths. In this seminar, current risks in the development of seatbelts and airbags are addressed and ideas for the early increase of maturity are elucidated. This is done by explaining the link between milestones in the development schedule, the functional requirements of restraint system components, the development duration of restraint system components and the description of approaches for the creation of substitutes of vehicle environments in the early development process. In addition the project schedules of conventional vehicle de- velopment processes and prototype-reduced development processes of base line models and derivatives are shown. Interactions of the development of seatbelts and airbags with surrounding components (e.g. trim parts) are also discussed. Course Objectives The course provides thoughts and ideas for a successful approach in the development of restraint systems within vehicle development processes in which only a small number of prototypes are available for verification and optimization of the systems.
Who should attend? The seminar is aimed at engineers and project managers of restraint systems and restraint system components develop- ment, as well as heads of teams or departments in the field of passive safety, which want to gain, in addition to the pure functional development of restraint systems, an overview of the requirements of the prototype-reduced restraint system development with regard to achieving and ensuring the necessary degree of maturity of belts and airbags. Course Contents Overview and differences of vehicle development schedules Standard project schedule Prototype-reduced development of lead series Prototype-reduced development of derivatives Safety belts Examples of requirements for safety belts Prerequisites and timing for functional development Timing for homologation and certification Ideas / possibilities for creating vehicle environments Interactions with surrounding components Airbags Examples of requirements for airbags

Sandro Hübner (EDAG Engineering GmbH) studied mechanical engineering at the University of Applied Sciences Schmalkalden. After completing his studies he worked as an engineer in the FEM laboratory of Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences. From 2003 he worked as a cae engineer for occupant safety at EASi Engineering GmbH. In 2006, he moved to EDAG Engineering GmbH as a cae engineer for vehicle safe- ty and has been project manager for vehicle safety and CAE since 2013.
