BIW torsion stiffness optimization based on sensitivity analysis

To improve the torsion stiffness of the Body in White(BIW) for a mass production automobile, a BIW stiffness optimization method is proposed on the basis of sensitivity analysis. The theory of sensitivity analysis and the automotive body stiffness optimization strategy are elaborated. By changing the thicknesses of 37 low cost cross members during the automotive body development, the effect of the change on BIW torsion stiffness is analyzed. The calculation and analysis on the BIW finite element model verify the optimization strategy and the performance of BIW torsion stiffness are compared before and after optimization. The result shows that the method can greatly improve the automobile body torsion stiffness in lower cost.
