It's important for the staff who investigate an accident to be the person who became independent from a production site. Moreover a special right has to be granted to the staff in the organization. The reason is because it's necessary that they have a different viewpoint from field overseer. The staff's viewpoint is a one related to the importance of the site preservation,necessity of an information feedback and the way to fill out an accident report. It was modeled in the last chapter about a relation of the various factors which have an influence on accident investigation.展开更多

Methods An integration of multi-body dynamic, finite element (FE), and classical method was applied to a car-pedestrian crash accident. The location of the collision and the details of the traffic accident were determined by vehicle trace verification and autopsy. The accident reconstruction was performed by coupling the three-dimensional car behavior from PC-CRASH with a MADYMO dummy model. The collision FE models of head and leg, developed from CT scans of human remains, were loaded with calculated dummy collision parameters. The data of the impact biomechanical responses were extracted in terms of von Mises stress, relative displacement, strain and stress fringes. Results The accident reconstruction results were identical with the examined ones and the biomechanism of head and leg injuries, illustrated through the FE methods, were consistent with the classical injury theories. Conclusion The numerical simulation technology is proved to be effective in identifying traffic accidents and exploring of injury biomechanism.展开更多

Methods The FE model, composed of femur, tibia, fibula, patella, meniscus, knee ligaments and surrounding soft tissues, was reconstructed by CT scanning data from a male volunteer. Validation was performed by the lateral impact simulation, and the stress and strain results were obtained to be compared with those previously reported for injury prediction. Results The results derived from the FE model were found to be similar with those previously reported, most of the ligaments and meniscus wounded at 40 m/s collision, which was readily observed. Conclusion The simulation results generated by FE model can be effectively used for the injury mechanism analysis of initial contact.展开更多
