Spine Trauma Associated With Off-Road Vehicles

The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1988
In brief: A seven-year review of 1,447 cases of spine trauma showed a 10% increase in sports-related spine trauma from 1980 to 1986; 53 cases were associated with use of off-road vehicles (ATVs, snowmobiles, and motorized dirt bikes). Of these 53 injuries, the major contributing factors were alcohol or drug use, inadequate lighting, poor judgment, and ...

Off-road Vehicle Accidents

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1978
A survey of off-road vehicle accident injuries indicates a significant incidence of trauma: means of 931 serious injuries and 15 fatalities/year were reported for a three-county region of Southern California. A representative 78-bed community hospital in the desert region saw 542 patients with injuries related to off-road vehicle accidents over 3 years.

Off-Road Vehicle Electronics

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1983
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Application of electronics to off-road vehicles is shown to be motivated by two basic needs: increased productivity and improved protection. Increases in productivity include gains in both machine performance and operator efficiency.

Off-Road Vehicle Dynamics

Vehicle System Dynamics, 1981
SUMMARY Recent developments in off-road vehicle dynamics are reviewed. Progress on this topic and the application of new techniques to the particular problemsassociated with off-road operation tend to lag behind practices established for road vehicles. The factor which limits further progress is the lack ofappropriate off-road tyre data, in particular,

Performance of Off-road Vehicles

2016
Vehicle performance refers to the science of motioning of the vehicle in terms of transient performance (e.g. acceleration, braking, cornering) and those of steady-state performance criteria such as (power driveline losses, gross and net traction, vehicle aerodynamics).

Stability Analysis of Agricultural Off-Road Vehicles

Journal of Agricultural Safety and Health, 2018
Abstract. Vehicle rollovers cause many agricultural work-related fatalities each year. Tractors, off-road utility vehicles (ORUVs), zero turn radius (ZTR) mowers, and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) can all become involved in fatal rollovers. The rollover tendency of these vehicles was evaluated using static lateral and longitudinal stability angles ...

Physiological Demands of Off-Road Vehicle Riding

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2010
The purpose of this study was to characterize the physiological demands of recreational off-road vehicle riding under typical riding conditions using habitual recreational off-road vehicle riders (n = 128).Comparisons of the physical demands of off-road vehicle riding were made between vehicle types (all-terrain vehicle (ATV) and off-road motorcycle ...

Off-road traction prediction for wheeled vehicles

Journal of Terramechanics, 1973
INTRODUCTION SOm-VEmCLE traction equations are an essential part of vehicle performance simulation. Man-controlled machine elements such as engines and transmissions have been understood and defined mathematically for a long time. Phenomena at the soil-wheel interface has not been as well understood. The dynamics portion of a simulation (Fig.
