Abstract

The single-case analysis of well documented pedestrian accidents involving impact speeds above 50 kph has yielded findings on the kinematics of accidents on the basis of damage and injuries sustained. In particular, it has been possible to assign the type and location of head injuries to the specific stages of an accident. Experimental accident simulations have been performed with the frontal impact of passenger car against stationary pedestrian dummies.
