Abstract
For practical application in engineering numerical simulations are required to be reliable and reproducible. Unfortunately crash simulations are highly complex and nonlinear and small changes in the initial state can produce big changes in the results. This is caused partially by physical instabilities and partially by numerical instabilities. Aim of the project is to identify the numerical sensitivities in crash simulations and suggest methods to reduce the scatter of the results.
