Abstract:

In order to enhance the safety performance of the occupant restraint system, the parameter optimization technology for surrogate model is applied to the reliability optimization design of the restraint system in this paper. Firstly, a simulation model for the driver?side restraint system of a vehicle is established and verified by real vehicle crash test. Then, the grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm is used to optimize the correlation parameters of Kriging (KRG) model, so a high?accuracy GWO?KRG surrogate model is obtained. Finally, based on GWO?KRG surrogate model, a reliability optimization is conducted on the restraint system. The results show that GWO?KRG surrogate model can provide more accurate predicted response, and after reliability optimization the safety performance of the restraint system is improved with its reliability also guaranteed.

Key words: occupant restraint system, grey wolf optimization, Kriging surrogate model, reliability optimization design
