Since 2007, Insurance Institute of Highway Safety(IIHS) has conducted the new bumper test using bumper barrier to estimate the repair cost of impacted vehicle. In this study, for the front body FE model of a medium size passenger car analyzes were carried out to optimize the shape of backbeam center reinforcement bracket. First, overlap effect was examined with changing the overlap magnitude and spot welds were added along the backbeam center line for reducing the section shear deformation. Next, for an overlap model design parameter study was performed for the bracket. Thickness effect was examined and an inner reinforcement was added to the bracket. Also, the lower part of bracket was deleted and additionally the bracket length was extended. The results were discussed in terms of backbeam backward deflection, barrier backstop intrusion and weight. Compared with the current design, the final model showed 44.1% bracket weight reduction with 30.0% decrease of backbeam deflection.

PURPOSES : The impact performance of flexible barrier system such as structural response, vehicular motion and occupant safety vary depending on the impact point. Thus, to properly evaluate the performance of a flexible barrier system, impact should be made to a point which will lead to the worst possible results. This point is called the Critical Impact Point (CIP). This paper presents the way to determine the CIP for a SB2 class flexible barrier system which is consisted of Thrie-Beam rail and circular hollow tube post of 2m span. METHODS: Barrier VII simulations were made for impact points; Case 1 at a post, Case 2 at 1/3 span downstream from a post, Case 3 at middle of the span, Case 4 at 2/3 span downstream from a post. For the structural performance (deflections), impact simulation of 8000kg-65km/h-15degree was used, and for vehicle motion and occupant safety, simulation of 1300kg-80km/h-20degree impact was made and analysed. RESULTS: Case 1 gave the largest dynamic deflection of 75.72cm and also gave the largest snag value of 44.3cm. Occupant safety and exit angle of the vehicle after the impact were not sensitive to the impact point and were all below the allowable limit. CONCLUSIONS : For the SB2 class flexible barrier system's CIP can be regarded as a post which is sufficiently away from the end of Length of Need in order to avoid the end-effect of the barrier system. It can be more economic in the long run because the normal concrete pavement material is likely to cost more due to higher probability of maintenance and repair and higher social cost due to traffic accident, etc.

This study has been started for the development of a refined live load distribution formula that has safety and precision toward I type prestressed concrete girder bridge. This type of bridge is mainly applied to short span bridges that are $25{\sim}40m$ in length. Based on various structure analysis models that are currently being applied as preceding studies for the development of live load distribution method. an analysis of flexural stiffness ratio for barrier and diaphragm has been performed. As the result of parametric analysis for the changes in flexural stiffness ratio, the effect of barrier on load distribution showed as insignificant in all structural analysis models while analyzing the deflection distribution. Also. the deflection distribution of the models with stiffness of 25% in which the diaphragm eccentricity is accounted for as same as the models with stiffness of 100% in which the diaphragm eccentricity is unaccounted for. This results are verified through the comparison with a experimental data.

원형 혹은 H형 단면의 표지판지주에 소형차가 충돌할 때 차량 및 지주의 거동을 확인하기 위하여 Barrier VII 프로그램을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 이 프로그램은 연성 베리어에 충돌하는 차량의 운동과 베리어의 변위를 해석하는 프로그램이나, 지주를 수평 빔 요소로 하고 각 노드에 강성을 조절한 기둥 요소로 연결함으로써 소형지주에 대한 충돌해석이 가능함을 보였다. 0.9ton 소형차가 기초와 강결된 파이프형태의 소형 지주에 30km/h, 60km/h, 70km/h 110km/h의 속도로 충돌하는 경우, 0.9ton 소형차와 1.35ton 중형차가 기초에 강결된 H형 단면 지주에 110km/h의 속도로 충돌하는 경우, 그리고 0.9ton 소형차가 분리되는(slip base) 형태로 기초에 연결된 파이프형태의 소형 지주에 110km/h의 속도로 충돌하는 경우 등 총 7가지 경우에 대한 시뮬레이션을 실시하여 지주의 변형과 충돌차량의 거동을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 고속충돌 시 기초에 강결 된 원형지주의 경우 과다한 휨 변형으로 표지판과 차량 전면부와의 충돌위험성이 있고 H형 지주와 같이 비교적 큰 표지판용 지주는 소형차 충돌 시 지주의 변형은 거의 없고 차량에 가해지는 충격력, 지주가 과다하게 차체 안으로 침투할 위험성이 크다는 사실과 breakaway 장치로 단부처리를 하는 경우 위험이 줄어들 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The nonlinear dynamic behaviors of guardrail established on the local or high way have been investigated using BARRIER Ⅶ program with respect to four design variables such as section type of beams and posts, impact angle, impact velocity and vehicle weight. Computer simulation programs are sophisticated analytical models for analyzing dynamic vehicle/barrier interactions and provide a relatively inexpensive alternative to full scale crash testing. This study has been focused on the structural adequacy, occupant risk, and vehicle trajectory. For this purpose, the maximum deflection and impact force have been calculated to design the clear zone and to analyze effect of impact attenuation. Also, the acceleration of vehicle and exit angle after collision have been computed to estimate the occupant risk. From this study, it is suggested that we should strengthen the design criteria of guradrail to prevent from disastrous traffic accidents.

Side collisions (or side crash) account for 51.6% of all car to car accidents occurred in 2010. It is necessary to analyze those vehicles' structure deformation and passengers' injuries in the side collisions. A moving barrier (950kg) is currently used in the KNCAP side impact test. However, in order to enhance a passengers' safety in the side collisions, we introduce an AE-MDB (1500kg) which provides more severe conditions for this test. In this study, the test results using both barriers are compared and analyzed.

In order to predict the train noise propagation from a level railroad, this paper presents the model of train noise source and the prediction model based on the results by using the sound intensity method. The prediction model gives the effects of geometric attenuation, ground attenuation, and barrier attenuation of noise. There are several principal assumption in developing model: (a) the train noise is primarily rolling noise; (b) the rail head and wheels are in good condition; (c) the height of source is 10cm above track; (d) the directivity pattern of train noise sources is a dipole source. Calculated results based on this model are compared with available field data and good agreement has been obtained.

A new concept of membrane type LNG CCS was proposed. Also, its static behavior was numerically analyzed considering the interaction between primary and secondary barrier together with securing device. Hull deflection was taken into account as an external load, together with temperature distribution across the barriers. The suggested numerical model considers both sliding and contact between the two mating surfaces of both the primary and secondary barrier, and anisotropic material behavior of plywood, R-PUF was also taken into account. Furthermore, detailed local strength was evaluated for the securing device, which is arranged between two barriers to hold the primary barrier. It was confirmed through the numerical analysis that the new concept of membrane type CCS was structurally safe under static loading condition and securing concept was structurally reliable.

Impact of Automotive GMT(Glassfiber reinforced Mat Thermoplastic) Bumper for '5Mhp Barrier Test'was simulated using ls-dyna. The FE model consists of foam which is energy absorber, bumper beam and stay etc. Bumper intrusion and deflection was compared with the experimental results. Effects of uncertainty of material property and deviation of impact velocity were considered and results were compared with those of base design. Effects of number of integration points through th thickness was also investigated.
