Multi-objective optimization of crashworthiness for mini-bus body structures

In order to improve crash safety, the body structure of a mini-bus is optimized in this study. One type of multi-objective optimization method is proposed in this article. The peak acceleration a max at the B pillar lower end and total mass m of the body in white were set as two objective functions....
