Abstract
:
The objectives of this study were (1) to accurately calibrate the BARRIER VII Computer Simulation Model with full-scale vehicle crash test data, and (2) to conduct BARRIER VII Model simulations to evaluate the safety performance of Kansas guardrail transition designs in "comparison" to selected FHWA approved guardrail transition designs.
