Low-Speed in-line Collision

If any of you fellow reconstructionists have conducted low speed crash tests or have access to low-speed (less than 15 mph)in-linen crash test data, please contact me at 801-201-2532 or at e-mail prosourc@xmission.com. I want to improve the input data required into MARC1-W4. Of particular interest is the vehicle-to-vehicle contact area stiffness (lb/ft)and the actual deformation depth at the contact area (this depth measurement was entirely ignored by the 2016 Crash Conference special low-speed crash test with a Mazda 3 and a Land Rover ball hitch). For more information see also my two publications in 2015 on this website dealing with low-speed crash test "reconstruction".

I hope to hear from you,

Rudy Limpert
