Anderson hall - accident reconstruction email format

Anderson Hall provides consultancy services in accident reconstruction, injury causation and biomechanics for insurers, plaintiffs, and their legal representatives throughout Australia, the Asia Pacific region and the United States of America. We can advise on a range of matters, including fatal, catastrophic, moderate and minor injury accidents. We provide a broad range of technical analyses and expert opinions, including: • Scene and physics-based crash reconstruction in crashes of all types; • Damage analysis and crash severity using EDR analysis, deformation-energy-momentum relationships; • Injury mechanisms and injury risks based on biomechanics science, including examination of injury patterns to determine causation; • Speed reconstruction using physics-based crash simulation and acceleration-deceleration models; • The actions of drivers, road users and workers, including analysis of perception-reaction times; • Restraint use and ejection and associated risk models, including examination of physical evidence to ascertain vehicle rollover sequences and occupant contact points with vehicle interiors and injury causation; • Helmet examination and seat belt examination to determine use; • Line of sight and illumination issues, including at-scene observations and illuminance measurements; • CCTV, dash-cam and GPS analyses to reconstruct vehicle positions over time to assist in crash reconstruction; • Event Data Record (“black box”) analyses to determine crash dynamics and pre-crash vehicle kinematics; • Computer-aided crash reconstruction using PC-Crash (momentum) and HVE (energy conservation), and • The effect of vehicle safety systems, including advanced vehicle systems such as forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking and lane-keep assistance.
