    Abstract: The behavior of a panel component in the plate thickness direction can be analyzed with greater accuracy. A joint structure in which a panel component and a reinforcing component facing together are connected through one or more elastic adhesives is modeled. A panel component behavior analysis method analyzes the behavior of the panel component by finite element analysis using a computer. From actually measured heating or cooling data of the elastic adhesive, an elastic coefficient including change in elastic coefficient of the elastic adhesive in response to temperature change and using temperature as a parameter is determined. The determined elastic coefficient using temperature as a parameter and a thermal expansion coefficient are set as physical property conditions of the elastic adhesive. The behavior of the panel component is analyzed in a temperature change condition in which a temperature change is applied to the joint structure in a previously-set temperature range.

    Abstract: A translation control and rotation control mechanism support jig for supporting a front end portion of an automobile body part includes a pair of support members, a rotary box having an L-shaped plate, a rotary shaft pin, a compression pin, and a connection plate. The translation control mechanism includes a support plate, a slide guide, an automobile body part securing disk, a translation plate, and a compression pin. Energy-absorbing members are disposed in an arcuate guide groove on a side surface of the rotary box and a linear guide groove arranged on the support plate or the translation plate. A collision punch collides at a test speed with the L-shaped plate of the rotary box. The compression pin deforms the energy-absorbing members to apply torque opposite to a rotation direction and a reaction force in an opposite direction to a translation direction.
