This chapter discusses the optimization of vehicle component characteristics to minimize the cabin deformation in collisions. A one‐dimensional nonlinear spring and mass model was used to simulate a truck undergoing a frontal barrier crash test. There are many more variations between different truck models than between different passenger car models, including large differences in platform structure and payload capacity. The authors therefore carried out a parameter design process in which differences in component weights in different variations and changes in strength characteristics due to deterioration were considered. The parameter design process was iterated by checking closely spaced levels of the control factors to find the optimal direction. This method enabled the optimal conditions to be estimated while maintaining the reproducibility of the gain. The chapter shows the ANOVA determined from the calculation with respect to the first line of the orthogonal array.
