Design and simulation of the new highway guardrail based on ADAMS

This paper had done the research related with the vehicle-guardrail collision, the protective properties of the existing protective guardrail and the structure of the existing protective guardrail, then established the new highway guardrail software model based on ADAMS software technology platform. In the model, this paper selected the double-guardrail with waveform panels, and done the guardrail collision simulation in the case of impact angle of 15 °, 20 °, and 25 ° at the speed of 80KM / h on the waveform guardrail, then selected the real-time data access the collision, conclude the angle of the vehicle collision and the speed of the vehicle all had impact on the guardrail structure, the conclusion had described that the deformation of the guardrail before and after collision changed in kinematic parameters.
