An improved mathematical model for vehicle crashagainst highway guardrails

Abstract: Highway guardrail is a kind of important road traffic safety facility. When a vehicle is travelling on a highway, it can lose control because of accident. The guardrail can prevent the vehicle from rushing directly out of the road, so as to reduce the injury to the driver in the vehicle. Therefore, the guiding performance, anti-collision performance and buffer performance of the guardrail are important indexes to reflect the highway guardrail safety in the traffic accidents between vehicle and guardrail.

“…The presence of electric batteries in EVs results in a higher mass and a lower center of gravity compared to similarly sized gasoline or diesel cars. The crash performance of longitudinal barriers relies on various factors, such as the weight of the vehicle, impact speed, and the angle of impact (He & Lin, 2018). Given that weight is a crucial factor, there is concern that much heavier electric vehicles could pose a higher risk compared to gasoline or diesel cars of similar size.…”
