COMPUTER SIMULATION PROGRAMS AND SPEED CALCULATION PROGRAMS
| These computer programs were written in the 1970's for the Federal Government to do highway safety research. | |
| Programs were validated by twelve two-vehicle crash tests. | |
| Physics Laws are in these computer programs. These computer programs have error messages. If the analysis is not in compliance with the laws of motion an error message appears. | |
| Error message is very important safeguard in computer programs. | |
| One computer program calculates speed. It does so by conservation of momentum or crush damage analysis plus post impact travel, depending on the impact configuration. | |
| The other computer program simulates traffic accidents. It can test theories on accident causation and vehicle speeds advanced by various witnesses and parties. It can also demonstrate a correct solution. | |
| Both of these programs are accepted in court and provide very good visual graphics of the accident as shown by the example on this website. | |
