Traffic Crash Reconstruction - Level 2 with IPTM

Free

with Hunter Martin

Calendar Apr 29, 2024 at 8 am

Learn the latest theories and methodologies of crash reconstruction and expand your knowledge of the principles of collision analysis in this advanced course. We will explore topics that have previously received limited coverage, as well as many new ones. While the course can be thought of as “in-service” training for traffic crash reconstructionists, ACTAR candidates will also find it beneficial.

We will review the mathematical equations that are used in conjunction with crash data to interpret how a collision occurred. Emphasis will be placed upon skid characteristics, spin analysis, critical speed yaw analysis and friction. The concepts of time-distance, uniform circular motion, pole impacts, and conservation of linear momentum are just a few of the topics that will be covered.

As part of the course, you will be required to complete several in-class projects and a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary project designed to reinforce the class material.

Topics Include: 

Using geometry, trigonometry and selected mathematical topics as neededDynamics, kinematics, and Newton’s Laws of Motion as vector equationsDrag/acceleration factor testing and determinationCritical speed yaw analysis important differences between CSY and spin analysis time-distance analysisPole and narrow object impactsApplications of conservation of linear momentumFundamentals of rollover crash reconstructionUniform projectile motion and airborne speed analysis
