Analytic Engineering
Analytic Engineering has the ability to retrieve the Crash Data stored in many modern vehicles Inflatable Restraint Systems through the Bosch Crash Data Retrieval System. This "Black Box" data can be very useful in determining causality in accident scenarios, particularly when use in combination with traditional accident reconstruction techniques.
Vehicular Accident Reconstruction uses the information available after an accident or "crash" event, in combination with applied mechanical properties and principles to establish the cause(s) of the event. This information is gathered from a variety of sources: witness recollections; configuration of the area; traffic control devices; physical damage; occupant dynamics; weather conditions; lighting issues; vehicle configuration, capabilities and condition; marks on the roadway; ...
The scientific fields involved are extensive and include:
Mechanical Engineering
Newtonian Physics
Material Science
Structural Mechanics
Statics
Dynamics
Kinematics
Biomechanics
Human Factors
Heat Transfer
Traffic Engineering - Among Others.
The interrelation of variables in an accident can be very complex, requiring appropriate knowledge in the above fields. At Analytic Engineering, Vehicular Accident Reconstruction is conducted by a Professional Engineer with specific training in the field.
