Abstract

Meso and full-scale impact tests have historically been used to assess the capacity of high-deformation barriers used against natural hazards and to validate numerical models. However, the data acquired from such experiments is typically limited to peak barrier elongation and occasionally force-time-displacement curves acting on specific structural elements. In rare occasions, complex and expensive procedures such as 4D photogrammetry are employed. Herein, a procedure is developed to obtain a barrier deformation data in three dimensions using low-cost MEMS sensors and consumer-grade cameras. The procedure is validated against LIDAR data for both quasi-static and dynamic conditions.
