    Biomechanics in Motor Vehicle Collisions

    In this presentation, the dynamics of the human body during car, truck, and motorcycle accidents are explored through biomechanical analysis. Attendees will learn about the forces and impacts that affect the body in various crash scenarios, using scientific principles to understand common injury mechanisms. Key topics include how collision severity, impact configuration, and safety systems influence the nature of injuries sustained by occupants. This presentation aims to bridge the gap between engineering principles and medical outcomes, providing insights for addressing personal injury claims arising from motor vehicle collisions.
