Abstract

Medium to large post structures installed along the roadside without proper protection can lead to serious vehicle damage and occupant injury at the impact. In North America and Europe, splitting systems such as slip base or breakaway device are used to reduce impacts. But the system has the risk of secondary accident when the splitted post falls down to the traffic or pedestrian. Sliding Post have been proposed as a way to solve this problem. By studying the crash test results of the 1.3ton and 0.9ton vehicle with 60 km/h and 80 km/h to a Rigidly Fixed Post (RFP) and Sliding Post (SP), danger of the conventional RFP and crashworthiness of the SP have been proven. While collision analysis only from the acceleration measured at the center of the vehicle assumes the motion of the post is the same as that of the vehicle, in this paper, by adding high speed film data to the analysis with vehicle acceleration could have separate the post motion from the vehicle motion. It gives better explanations on the movement of post and vehicle in each distinctive time step and provides basics to the crashworthy post design.

도로변에 설치된 중대형 지주구조물은 적절히 방호되지 않고 차량에 노출된 경우 충돌 시 심각한 차량 파손과 탑승자 상해로 이어진다. 북미지역이나 유럽은 차량에 노출된 지주에 대한 충돌피해를 줄이기 위하여 일반적으로 분리식 지주를 사용하고 있으나 분리된 지주의 낙하 시 2차 사고의 위험이 상존한다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 슬라이딩 지주가 제안되었다. 본 논문은 국도와 지방도에 많이 쓰이는 무게 507 kg의 편주식 지주구조에 대하여 기존의 방식으로 기초에 강결된 경우와 슬라이딩 지주로 개선된 경우에 대한 1.3 ton-60 km/h, 1.3 ton-80 km/h의 충돌실험을 실시하여 강결지주의 위험도를 보이고 슬라이딩지주의 감충성능(Crashworthiness)을 입증하였다. 한편 차량중심에서 계측된 가속도가 차량과 지주의 운동을 동시에 나타낸다고 보는 기존의 충돌해석 방법 대신 고속촬영 데이터를 이용하여 지주를 차량의 운동과 분리시켜 충돌과정을 단계별로 설명함으로써 감충성능을 갖는 지주설계의 기초를 제시하였다.
