ABSTRACT

Accidents often occur when vehicles collide with the movable guardrail of center median divider, and the traffic safety has become an important issue in the field of traffic. Based on easy-open movable guardrail, a finite element simulation model had been established. Full-scale collision simulation between vehicle with and movable rail was calculated using the LS DYNA software, and the results showed that the subject structure of the movable guardrail had enough strength and design capacity, which were fully meet the relevant inspection standards.
