Abstract
Abstract This study proposes to design a road support structure subjected to high-strain-rate loading occurring during vehicle collisions. The strain-rate affects both the hardening process and the material failure process. For modeling the strain-rate influence on material, various mathematical material models are used including the Johnoson-Cook model. The main goal of the study is to presenta method for determining the parameters for the Johnson-Cook damage model, a hybrid method which requires Charpy impact tests on a standard specimen with an annular notch and a series of calculations using finite element method simulating the test. The advantages of the presented method compared to existing methods are the high availability of the equipment, simple and quick processing of results and significantly lower costs.
