Study on the Anticollision Performance of a New Corrugated Steel Protection System for Bridge Pier by Guicheng Chen, Haidong Huang, Zhongfu Xiang

“…The results show that the new method can effectively simulate the mechanical behavior of bolts and CSP. Parameters analysis was carried out subsequently by the verified finite element model which showed that the energy absorbing ability of CSP increases with corrugated steel pipe wall thickness and its weight decreases. …”
