The whole deformation of anti-stripe, the response curves of collision force and displacementin collision area, the curve of energy conversion andlocal stress were got during the collision, and then the colliding capability of anti-collision facility was assessed, the results show that anti-collision facility can resist the impact of ship, which plays a role in protecting bridge. %K anti-collision facility %K collision %K numerical simulation %U http://www.ivypub.org/cet/papersub/Global/DownloadService.aspx?PARAMS=SUReMjgzNQ_0_0
