TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Reconstruction of collision speed JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Fujita, Mitsuobu SP - 373 EP - 378 VL - 42 IS - 2 N2 - This paper focuses on reconstruction of pre-impact speed in a specific type of two-dimensional collision that one vehicle collides eccentrically with another stationary vehicle at a right angle. There is much less experimental data on two-dimensional collision than one-dimensional collision. This is why it is often difficult to reconstruct pre-impact speed in two-dimensional car accidents. This paper introduces effective collision speed (ECS) defined for one-dimensional collision into this type of collision, and confirms the usefulness of ECS for reconstruction of pre-impact speed using actual collision tests.
