Magnesium castings offer significant weight saving potential for many crash-relevant structures in the vehicle. Until now, proper cast magnesium design was difficult and time consuming, as reliable CAE tools were not available. In the European funded research project NADJA, a new set of CAE tools have been developed for AM60 andAMSO alloys that combine local casting process simulation results with crash failure CAE modelling to reliably predict component level crash behaviour. These CAE tools have been made commercially available and integrated into existing CAD / CAE codes.
