Accident mechanics

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The accident mechanics illuminate the movements and forces caused by an accident.

  • Accident - unpredictable and unintentional damage caused from the outside
  • Mechanics - movement of bodies under the influence of forces

Accident mechanics play a major role in accident reconstruction (see also accident analysis ) and in the development and design of restraint systems .

The basic equations of mechanics are important tools (force = mass × acceleration and work = force × distance)
