BIRM3D

BIRM3D software has demonstrated that with a validated impact response model, an engineer can evaluate the vulnerability of a barrier and the associated vehicle trajectory for a variety of impact scenarios without conducting costly vehicular crash tests. Further, due to the very efficient algorithms developed for BIRM3D, simulation runtime is typically under 10 minutes as opposed to days required by conventional finite element simulations.

Learn more about BIRM3D at the US Army Corps of Engineers Protective Design Center.
