Praise for the previous edition:
"...[an] interesting book...an ideal primer for teachers, aspiring forensic scientists and engineers, as well as members of the general public...valuable..."—Journal of Forensic Sciences
"Anyone who is interested in forensic science would find this book to be a powerful reference about the application of the field."—NSTA Recommends
Engineering scientists in motor vehicle crash investigations use forensic evidence to measure and analyze the variables involved in a car crash. Crashes and Collapses, Revised Edition examines forensic cases and investigative methods from the forensic engineering sciences, which include the physical sciences as well as all of the engineering fields. The engineering sciences dominate forensic investigations of events underlying civil disputes while also playing an important role in criminal investigations, especially in those in which a crime has been disguised as an accident.
Crashes and Collapses, Revised Edition provides middle and high school students with a unique look at this area of forensic science. After providing a history of forensic engineering science, this compelling eBook goes on to introduce Newton's laws of motion, which underlie accident reconstruction; the critical-speed-scuff method for determining the speed of cars; the obstacles confronting forensic investigators; and more. The eBook also provides enlightening looks at specific cases of crashes and collapses, presenting both the facts and analyses.
Chapters include:
History and Guiding Principles of Forensic Engineering Science
Accident Reconstruction: Getting Started
Accident Reconstruction: Moving into High Gear
Speed from Critical-Speed Scuffs
A Double Murder Poorly Disguised as an Accident?
The Crash of the Merchant Vessel Tamano
Subway Stop
Crane Collapse
Scaffold Collapse
Bringing It All Together: Lessons Conveyed.
