Assessment of Crash Energy - Based Side Impact Reconstruction Accuracy
… to determine countermeasure effectiveness. The WinSMASH crash reconstruction code is used to compute the ?V estimates in the NASS/CDS. However, the reconstruction accuracy of the current WinSMASH version has not previously been examined for side impacts. Given the importance of side impact crash …

Injury Risk of Road Departure Crashes using Modeling and Reconstruction Methods
… stiffness database was added to the WinSmash reconstruction program. This single modification increased the average estimated delta-V by 8% and reduced error from 23% to 13% on average. A method to extend the WinSmash energy-based reconstruction approach to poles and trees that were …

Evaluation of event data recorders in real world crashes and full-scale crash tests
… (NASS / CDS) database. Computer generated (WinSmash) values for delta-V showed the tendency to underestimate delta-V for high-speed deployment events and overestimate delta-V for low-speed nondeployment events when compared to the GM EDR. The Ford EDR showed a lack of sufficient recording …
