TASS International was established from five independent automotive TNO subsidiaries. The supplementary business propositions of these five independent companies - TASS, TNO Homologations, TTAI, EEMC and AFB Driving Guidance Lab - result in a complete offering of safe, green and smart mobility solutions.

Our history goes back a decade and starts at TNO (Netherlands' Organization for Applied Research). TNO is the Netherlands' independent research organisation whose expertise and research make an important contribution to the competitiveness of companies and organisations, to the economy and to the quality of society as a whole.

Co-simulation with MADYMO
This add-on analysis capability for Abaqus/Explicit can be used to perform vehicle-occupant crash safety simulations by coupling Abaqus/Explicit with MADYMO. The co-simulation technique can now be used to solve a crash safety simulation by directly coupling Abaqus/Explicit with the occupant simulation program MADYMO. For a crash safety simulation, the vehicle is modeled using Abaqus/Explicit and the occupant or the pedestrian is modeled using MADYMO dummy, human or pedestrian models. The Abaqus User's Guide for Crash Safety Simulation Using Abaqus/Explicit and MADYMO is available via the the SIMULIA support page.
