Accident Reconstruction
The field of accident reconstruction typically involves applying the laws of physics to situations involving impacts between man-made objects (passenger vehicles, trucks, sport-utility vehicles, etc.) and other man-made objects (other vehicles, poles, walls, curbs) and/or human beings.
By utilizing time-tested, fundamental physics relationships coupled with engineering theorems, accident reconstructionists may be able to assist in cases involving:
- Event Data Recorder (EDR) downloads
- Determination of impact speeds
- Driver perception and reaction time(s)
- Vehicle change in velocities (Delta V’s)
- Vehicle skid marks
- Driver steering and/or braking response(s)
- Vehicle damage & crush distances
- Acceleration pulses
- Driver visibility distance(s)
- Vehicle failure analysis
- Damage consistency & fraud analyse(s)
