RESUMO

One of the most interesting and challenging applications in engineering is the solution of inverse problems. In this kind of problem we have as an example the scientific approach of the ground vehicle accident reconstruction. Another directly related theme is collisions analysis, either in the context of an accident reconstruction, or in the context of the vehicle crashworthiness, associated to its structural integrity and their occupants passive safety. In this dissertation a modern optimization technique, known as genetic algorithm, is applied to the treatment of ground vehicles collision inverse problem using models of rigid vehicles. We have defined how, starting from imposed constraints and the vehicles final positions after a collision, the optimization algorithm may furnish the set of variables and parameters that most probably lead the vehicles to those positions. As a result, we have been able to evaluate the method as perfectly applicable to the proposed problem and may be used as a base aiming its implementation as a tool for support to the expertise regarding real cases.
