Introduction:Introduction:
Purpose: create a design where the dummy would survive from the force caused by the seat belts and avoid hitting the windshield.
system modeled elements: a mass, a dampener, and a spring element
Assumption: Gravity is neglected in the system to keep the model linear
mass as inertial, damping as a resistor, and the spring as a capacitor. The capacitance is 1/K where K is the spring constant.

Conclusion:Conclusion:• damping and spring is completely necessary in the design of the system in order for the dummy to survive. • The initial condition given in the lab was not sufficient to safe the dummy from colliding into the windshield or from force on the dummy’s chest.• I found the best design where he survives the impact from the wall shown in the figures.•Purpose was an introduction to the software to become familiar with the modeling process
