Impact Equation

Description

Researchers at Coventry University have pondered whether a new approach to forensic crash investigation could be
used to improve the development of new vehicles and pedestrian protection measures or even rethink the test regimes of certification bodies. The story begins in 2018 when Dr Christophe Bastien, principal lecturer and Transport Safety and Simulation research group leader for automotive safety, forensics and human trauma predictions
at Coventry University, sought to develop methods to evaluate the most commonly requested parameter in forensic crash investigations: vehicle speed.
