Finite Element simulation result

General: Effective for all passenger cars

Current regulations

 Actual commercial designs

Possible alternatives: Concrete

Wood

Specific: Breakaway poles still meeting EN 40-3 are better than

rigid poles to reduce injuries

RISER SEMINAR on Safer Roadside Engineering, Nov. 30, 2005 20

Madymo Simulation

Focus on occupants

Injury

Simple representation of objects

No detailed constructional behaviour

General regulations like ASI

Benchmarking vehicle-roadside
