The object of the thesis has been to perform a finite element simulation of a collision between a car and a moose crash test dummy. The car model was a previously made one. The moose dummy was modelled using drawings. An investigation of the rubber properties was needed together with dynamic and quasi-static tests of the stiffness and viscosity. Five material models were compared and the Neo-Hooke model was selected. Simulations of the crash were made and evaluated with a full scale test. Three simulations were run with variations made to the car design. The model was showing good overall behaviour when evaluated with the full scale test. However, the model is in general too weak resulting in larger deformations. Further investigations of the windscreen is also needed.
