A COMPARISON OF RESULTS OBTAINED WITH DIFFERENT ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF HIGHWAY ACCIDENTS

For several staged collisions, results obtained with closed form reconstruction calculations and with a computerized step-by-step procedure are compared with measured responses. A refined, closed-form reconstruction procedure is defined, derivations of the analytical relationships are outlined and detailed results of sample applications are presented. /GMRL/
