Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT The analysis considers the problem of transport safety improvement by application of additional impact energy dissipating elements. The results from experimental tests and numeric simulations of basic energy-absorbing element, in the form of sleeve made of steel and glass-epoxide composite are presented. These results were also used for the development of reliable numerical model of road barrier and for a simulation of barrier. The obtained results allowed for the practical usability assessment of the proposed solution. | ||||
