20.500.12556/RUL-153564 Gravel arrester beds as a safety measure at the motorway exit ramps experimental and numerical study At motorway junctions, crash cushions are usually installed to stop impacting vehicles safely. Gravel-filled arrester beds can be used as replacements for crash cushions. They offer improved safety by effectively using an already available large area, and lower-severity impact parameters for passengers while safely stopping the vehicle. The work presented in this paper was conducted to investigate the behaviour of passenger cars on gravel-filled arrester beds. For that purpose, a gravel-filled arrester bed was built, and a series of experiments was performed with passenger cars entering the arrester bed at an initial velocity of up to 75 km/h. Numerical analyses were also performed to validate the model as well as to examine the response of larger vehicles under a variety of conditions. The results have shown that gravel arrester beds can be used to stop heavier errant vehicles safely near road junctions. gravel-filled arrester bed safety escape ramps vehicle run-out areas vehicle safety gramozne izletne cone varnostne izletne cone varnost vozil prometna varnost true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2024-01-16 08:16:18 2024-01-16 08:16:23 2024-01-17 03:43:20 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 99–114 no. 1 Vol. 25 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 614.86:656.1 2164-7402 10.1080/14680629.2023.2194442 147609091 Gravel_arrester_beds_as_a_safety_measure_at_the_motorway_exit_ramps__experimental_and_numerical_study.pdf Gravel_arrester_beds_as_a_safety_measure_at_the_motorway_exit_ramps__experimental_and_numerical_study.pdf 1 6F174CF9EA7ECE6239C1240032257B2D 9a2b1f7aef04bb0bbb0665444bfe5920741e5230abca946997f93f35527142e2 7b5f5f49-b43f-11ee-9139-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=179632 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14680629.2023.2194442 1 2837fead-b43f-11ee-9139-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=179631 Fakulteta za strojništvo 0 0 0
