Guardrail terminals have evolved to the point where they absorb energy while utilizing tension in the rail to countermand the compression. However, non-gating terminals have yet to be developed. In the present study, the possibility of a non-gating g

The objective of the present study is two-fold. First, the elucidation of the biomechanics of penetrating trauma as a result of guardrail intruding into the occupant compartment. Second, the evaluation of the biomechanical efficacy of hybrid tension-

Crash cushions vary in geometry and cost. In this study, crash cushions were categorized in three different categories: redirecting with repair costs greater than $1,000 (RGM), redirecting with repair costs less than $1,000 (RLM), and nonredirecting

The severity of a roadside feature is often based on survey responses and has tended to emphasize extreme crash events, thereby overestimating the average severity of a particular feature. In this study, severity was related to embankment geometry by

The benefits of slope flattening were investigated by simulating accident costs with updated foreslope severities based on real-world accident data collected over a 7-year period in the State of Ohio. Functional classes considered were freeways, rura

Previously, the Steel and Foam Energy Reduction (SAFER) barrier system was successfully developed and crash tested for use in high-speed racetrack applications for the purpose of reducing the severity of racecar crashes into permanent, rigid, concret

Safety-shaped concrete barriers have been the most widely used rigid roadside barriers to shield errant motorists from roadside hazards or obstacles. These barriers are designed to lift impacting vehicles up and thereby extend the duration of impact

Most state departments of transportation use simple adaptations of crashworthy guardrail end terminals, which typically include breakaway posts and an anchor cable, for downstream anchorage systems. The guardrail safety performance for vehicular impa

A new fracturing-bolt universal breakaway steel post (UBSP) was developed and evaluated for use as a replacement for the controlled-release terminal (CRT) wood post currently used in the Thrie beam bullnose system. After numerous steel post concepts
