The analysis includes the change in cross–section of the roof rail, ranging from the open ”C profile”, through closed ”Rectangular” to hybrid ”Tandem with brackets”. The main aim of this study is to model the dynamic response of the car roof rail to impulse loading, which may appear in case of collision.enaluminiumthin–walled profilesautomotive applicationquasi–dynamic analysisaluminiumprofile cienkościenneanaliza quasi dynamicznaaplikacja samochodowaArtykuł
