Vehicle Speed Accident Reconstruction Based on Event Data Recorder
2019 2nd World Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Intelligent Manufacturing (WCMEIM), 2019In order to study the role of EDR data in vehicle accident reconstruction, the 15 basic data types of EDR data are analyzed. This paper reconstructs the complete process of 16 car traffic accidents and analyzes the data sources and collision types of EDR.

Hydroplaning and Accident Reconstruction
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1995<div class="htmlview paragraph">Automobile hydroplaning speed is affected by both the vehicle load on the tire and its inflation pressure, yet only inflation pressure is used in Horne's (1968) equation. He later (1984) made modifications to include a vehicle's tire footprint characteristics. Dunlap et al.

An Analysis of 285 Legal Autopsies in Road Accidents—Reconstruction of the Accident
Medicine, Science and the Law, 1971285 autopsies in fatal road accidents are analysed. A high correlation is found between our interpretation of lesions and police and expert reports. External autopsy is usually sufficient for an exact reconstruction of the accident. Indications for internal autopsy are discussed.

Traffic Accident Reconstruction Based on Occupant Trajectories and Trace Identification
ASCE-ASME J Risk and Uncert in Engrg Sys Part B Mech Engrg, 2019Momentum-based method and multibody method are often used in accident reconstructions. In this paper, a method that combines momentum-based method and multibody method is presented to analyze a real-world accident with occupant ejection.

Sensitivity of Accident Reconstruction Calculations
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1998<div class="htmlview paragraph"><i>A number of simplistic formulae, based on particle dynamics, energy, and momentum methods are routinely employed by accident reconstructionists to calculate vehicle speeds immediately prior to impact. It is almost always the case that scene evidence and other information regarding important variables ...

Accident reconstruction methods
Vehicle System Dynamics, 2009While reconstructing a car accident, there are several questions that must be answered, such as the movement of all the vehicles involved or of other people involved, or of objects from the point of first visual contact to their rest positions. Time history of velocities, positions as well as crash-related data such as velocity changes, deformation ...

Automated Accident Reconstruction
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1975<div class="htmlview paragraph">The Simulation Model of Automobile Collisions (SMAC) computer program was developed by Calspan Corporation as an aid with which to accurately reconstruct road accidents. Part of the overall objective of the research has been to make the system “user oriented” so that users without an engineering background can ...

Crash Phase Accident Reconstruction
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1986<div class="htmlview paragraph">Two algorithms, CRASH and IMPAC, used to calculate crash delta-V and impact velocity are compared. Each is observed to have common features but important differences. Error sources from restitution and intervehicle friction are discussed.

Structural reliability of road accidents reconstruction
Forensic Science International, 2013Reconstruction of road accidents combines objective and subjective action. The former concerns science, the latter assessment of human behavior in the context of objective findings. It is not uncommon for experts equipped with an arsenal of tools to obtain similar results of calculations, but to present radically different conclusions about the cause ...
