- Definition(s)
- Crumple Zones are sections of the front and rear of a vehicle that are designed to crumple during a crash so as to take as much energy as possible and keep the vehicle's occupants protected. Right Solution, Inc.
- Example sentence(s)
- Crumple zones yield during a crash, changing energy from the crash, into heat and sound, which in turn reduces the chances that the passengers in the car will be hurt. - Crumple Zones
![](https://cfcdn.proz.com/images/wikiwords/small_grey_arr.gif) - When used in crumple zones, lightweight plastic components can help absorb energy and save vehicle
weight at the same time. - American Chemistry Council
![](https://cfcdn.proz.com/images/wikiwords/small_grey_arr.gif) - The downside to modern "soft design" crumple zones is that they allow more damage to occur to a vehicle even when the collision is relatively minor and of no major threat to the safety of the occupants, thereby increasing repair costs. - Autotropolis

- 在撞击时,用来吸收撞击时的能量、减少座舱承受压力、位于车头与车尾的溃缩区(即变皱区)。 Own research - by Yurek
- Example sentence(s)
- 说到侧面撞击,就顺带提一下前后撞击。既然“侧面撞击保护系统”叫作Side Impact Protect System,那么是不是有一个“前后面撞击保护系统”叫作“Front and Back Impact Protect System”?错!不是这样的。前后面的应该叫作“吸撞缓冲区”——Crumple Zones。“Crumple”这个词儿就是“变皱”的意思,很形象也很准确吧 - Crumple Zones

- São as zonas do carro que se deformam, preservando o "habitáculo", ou seja, onde os passageiros se encontram, mesmo que o resto do carro fique destruído. Own research - by Paulo Lopes
- Example sentence(s)
- Zonas de deformação e diferentes tipos de aço
A estrutura frontal da carroceria no novo Volvo S80 foi dividida em várias zonas, cada uma com diferentes funções durante o processo de deformação. As zonas externas são responsáveis pela maior parte da deformação. Quanto mais as forças da colisão se aproximam do compartimento dos passageiros, menos o material se deforma.
