摘要

Buses are among the most widely used transportation modes worldwide due to their large passenger capacity and spacious design. With the continuous development of bus systems, ensuring their safety has become a critical research priority. The front bumper plays a vital role in absorbing impact forces during collisions, thereby mitigating force penetration into the vehicle cabin and protecting both the driver and passengers. In this study, the authors present a methodology that utilizes NX Siemens design software and HyperMesh for structural analysis, evaluation, and optimization of the crash box. The research findings determine the energy absorption, impact force, and penetration displacement of the bumper under various conditions, providing a comprehensive assessment of its performance. Based on these results, optimal design parameters are proposed to meet structural integrity, design efficiency, and technical safety requirements for the bumper system.
