Within
the last decade, ART experts have conducted extensive Design and Finite Element Analysis
of many successful projects in the area of physical security
and transportation safety. Some of the recently
accomplished projects are:
Superior K12
Shallow-Foundation Bollard (OTW, Inc. & ART, Inc.)
Our experts
designed this superior K12 Bollard system with only 18”
foundation. Our state-of-the-art FEA was used extensively to
improve and validate the design. The computer simulation
correlated very well with the actual test as shown in the movies
below.
Our New K12 Shallow-Foundation Bollard
provides superior advantage over any competitor one. Please

RSA
Anti-Ram structural wall
(RSA Protective
Technologies, LLC and DOE)
In
this project, a new design has been made for a structural
wall in order to stop a 65,000 Ib Truck in 50 mph
Impact. An accurate and reliable FE model has been created
together with a Truck model and several computer simulation
were conducted. Based on the simulation results, the initial
design of the wall has been modified. The simulation results
of the final design correlated very well with the results of
the actual test conducted at TTI as shown in the
movies below.

Anti-Ram
Foundation Pad
(RSA LLC. and K&C
Corp.)
A
new design for K4 Bollard system with only 14” foundation
was tested, modified and validated through FEA. The
simulation results of the barrier correlated very well with
the actual test conducted at PTI as shown in the attached
movies. Extra modifications have been done using FE
simulation to upgrade and validate the updated barrier
design for K8 impact.
