Kaiserslautern. From Movement to Crash – How Mathematical Models Enable More Realistic Accident Simulations
In a traffic accident, it is not only the impact itself that determines possible injuries. The crash is often preceded by a highly dynamic situation: the vehicle brakes abruptly, occupants try to brace themselves or react reflexively to the acceleration. These movements change the posture and speed of the limbs and thus significantly influence the risk of injury at the moment of impact. This raises a key question for accident research: How can these movements be simulated realistically?
