The analysis of motor vehicle impacts and the resulting injury exposure to occupants with artificial joints can be correlated to a parameter referred to as delta-v. The delta-v of a vehicle involved in a motor vehicle impact is defined as the change of velocity of the vehicle at its center of gravity during impact. The delta-v is a function of the closing speed between the two vehicles and the mass of each vehicle. A general formula for delta-v is as follows: ΔVi=(1+e)·(mj/(mi+mj))·Vc Where: Vc – closing speed between the two vehicles; e – coefficient of restitution; m – mass of each vehicle.Copyright © 2009 by ASME |
