측면충돌을 고려한 자동차 도어트림 팔걸이부 최적 설계

A nation have the regulation for a vehicle safety and interested in the side impact of a vehicle. But we spend a lot of money and time for the side impact test. So we must design a vehicle parts regard to the side impact test. This paper describes a new test method for side impact test. We used DFSS(Design For Six Sigma) process for design of door trim armrest. We searched the door trim armrest control factor and made the experiment plan. We researched the optimal design factor and improved the abdomen injury value of the human dummy.
