Abstract:It is crucial to examine the impact resistance of W-beam guardrails on both sides of the highway in order to limit the severity of impact incidents and safeguard passengers. Given its importance, this article investigates the impact resistance of the new three-wave steel guardrail. To be specific, the study uses ANSYS to establish the vehicle impact barrier model in which the guardrail is embedded in concrete and soil column. The new accurate model of the three-wave beam guardrail collision stimulates the defo… Show more
