pedestrian and cyclist impact a biomechanical perspective
p the aim of this book is to present pedestrian injuries from a biomechanical perspective . we aim to give a detailed treatment of the physics of pedestrian impact as well as a review of the accident databases and the relevant injury criteria used to assess pedestrian injuries . a further focus will be the effects on injury outcome of 1 pedestrian vehicle position and velocity at impact and 2 the influence of vehicle design on injury outcome . most of the content of this book has been published by these and other authors in various journals but this book will provide a comprehensive treatment of the biomechanics of pedestrian impacts for the first time . it will therefore be of value to new and established researchers alike .
