For pier impacted by vehicles, two types of pier protection devices are proposed, plastic and elastic. Through structural design and finite element analysis of the two devices, the advantages and disadvantages of the two devices are compared. According to the finite element results, the protection device is optimized and manufactured. Finally, the protection device is verified by impact test.
According to the energy level of vehicle impact, a kind of anti-vehicle impact protection structure is designed, which takes super-elastic material as the main buffer structure and fills the interior of the structure with foamed cellular super-elastic material. In addition to significantly buffering and reducing forces, the structure can recover automatically when the impact load is removed and its mechanical properties are stable.
