Free Access to Toyota THUMS generates strong take-up Outside AutomotiveToyota made THUMS available free of charge on a dedicated public website at the start of this year, and already 400 users wolrd-wide have downloaded the application. Use cases of THUMS now also include ergonomics studies in non-automotive areas. For example, the THUMS model is used in bed design aimed at bedsore prevention, and also in the design of rackets, American football helmets and shoes for injury prevention.

Inflation of Elastomer Sheets: Bi-axial Material Properties enable improved ModelingThe results of numerical simulation of elastomer components often deviate significantly from the real behavior of the components. One potential reason is that only data from unidirectional tensile tests are taken into account. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Structural Durability and System Reliability LBF have improved known test specifications for the biaxial tensile test. The implemented optical 3D measurement of the specimen under load enables the precise recording of material properties. The data from the new method improves material modeling and thus forms the basis for increased design quality of elastomer components.
