Abstract: In this article deals the crash investigation of Bumper for different materials using ANSYS Workbench. Bumper is a vital parameter which is used as safety protection for passengers from accidents by means of impact energy absorption from collision environment. The ultimate focus of this work is material optimization for Bumper by performing impact analysis with the help of ANSYS. The entire analysis process comprises of two stages, which are conceptual design of Bumper and preparation of Bumper for numerical analysis. The optimization of this work is based on structural parametric results, in which total deformation, equivalent stress induced are primarily involved. . The reference component’s modeling process is completed by means of CATIA, and then the impact analysis is carried by ANSYS Workbench 16.2, in which the materials used for bumper are Steel and Glass fiber based composite with the constant boundary conditions [speed = 13.3 m sec-1]. Finally suitable material is finalized for car bumper.
