1.0 out of 5 stars
Could have been a lot better. Much left out about subject.,
By Hal Watson Jr. (halprof39@aol.com) (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Low-Speed Automobile Accident Reconstruction: Investigation (Hardcover)
A basic physics approach to low speed impact of automobiles. Author uses a strange definition of coefficient of restitution which is negative instead of positive. Little experimental data is offerred and there is no review of the current low speed impact volunteer data which is the current basis for much opinion. The free video is some graphic computer artist's crude representation of a rear end collision and depicts unrealistic vehicle, seat and occupant kinematics. However, for a rank beginner you will be exposed to the basic physics of this type of collision. For a followup you will need to read various SAE papers to really understand the practical realities of the relationship between such a collision and the outcomes.

This review is from: Low-Speed Automobile Accidents: Accident Reconstruction and Occupant Kinematics, Dynamics, and Biomechanics (Hardcover)
Better AR books out there but was a good grab for the price. Biomechanics section pretty good as well as plenty of basic formulae. Lacking photos.
