Abstract

In the last two decades the trend has been to use experiments more and more as sources of input data and to validate computer simulations. This paper describes and comments on some experience of using simulations to design and improve safety barriers and other roadside devices. Consideration is also given to more recent work on the use of simulations for other safety problems, and finally some new trends in dynamic simulation of road accidents are outlined.
