Abstract:

What is RSL? - It is a library of analytical tools and computer simulation models specifically designed for the investigation of vehicles impacting roadside hardware. Why do we need it? - Computer simulation of vehicle/barrier crashes is an essential element in the process of designing roadside hardware. The cost of computer simulation is considerably less than the alternate full-scale crash tests.
