Abstract:With the increase of traffic volume and the vehicle speed, the problem of insufficient safety margin of anti-collision pad is becoming more and more obvious. In order to comply with the national policy guidelines to create the safe traffic and quality projects, follow the principle of putting people first and prioritizing safety, the safety margin improvement design of anti-collision pad is studied. Taking the anti-collision pad verified through the full-scale collision test of real vehicles as the object, and using the foam aluminum material with superior buffering and energy absorption, the scheme system analysis is carried out by means of computer simulation. The safety margin improvement design scheme of anti-collision pad is put forward, which is safe and reliable, universal, reasonable in cost and simple in technically, and the safety margin improvement effect of the anti-collision pad is verified from the buffer index and the protection speed. Research shows that filling the diagonal braces at the end of the anti-collision pad with new aluminum foam material can increase the absorption of vehicle collision energy to make the passenger buffer index smaller and the collision protection speed higher, which embodies the better protection effect and larger protection range, improves the highway operation safety level, and also provides the important support for the structural design and engineering application of similar anti-collision pads.
