Abstract

The objective of this paper is to illustrate how the use of velocity diagrams of both vehicle and occupant motion can be of great assistance to the accident reconstructionist. For analyzing occupant motion, reasonably realistic models of compartment response are proposed based on either a cosine model or a model derived from the crash computer programs.
