Heavy-goods vehicle collisions with steel road safety barriers: Combined influences of position of center of mass and tire-pavement friction
A Montella, M Pernetti - Transportation research record, 1999 - journals.sagepub.com
Vehicles that collide with highway safety features do not always produce the same effects.
The outcome for each vehicle that collides with a feature will be different, depending greatly
not only on its mass, velocity, and impact angle but also on the position of its center of mass
and on the tire-pavement friction. The ways in which barrier and striking vehicle behaviors
are affected by changes in the position of the center of mass and in the tire-pavement side
friction were analyzed to identify the most dangerous loading systems. Toward this aim …
