摘要: The objective of this research study was to perform the preliminary analysis and design of a short-radius guardrail system capable of meeting the Test Level 3 (TL-3) impact conditions of NCHRP Report no. 350 criteria. However, the research was only to include the development of a design concept and not the fabrication and subsequent testing. The research into the development of a new short-radius design, described herein, consisted of six parts: (1) a literature search; (2) a design space analysis; (3) construction of an appropriate NCHRP Report No. 350 test matrix in order to validate the design; (4) development and selection of a potential short-radius design; (5) computer simulation using LS-DYNA of the most promising design concept; and (6) selection of a final design along with recommendations and suggestions for future work.
