Aging, Obesity, and Motor Vehicle Collisions

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Cities, 2020
Aging and obesity are two key areas of research as risk factors leading to motor vehicle collisions (MVCs). However, only a few studies identified obese older drivers as an at-risk population of MVC (i.e., older than 65 years old with Body Mass Index >

Locating the Center of Mass of Various Simplified Car Designs for the Problem of Flipping Over an Incline

open access: yesUndergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two, 2020
The center of mass of a given system is referred to as a position that is the average of all of its components. I am given two cases in which I need to find the center of mass for the problem of flipping over an incline.
