Crash FX
Crash FX is a linear momentum tool that is precise and intuitive, as well as a great timesaver. It enables the reconstructionist to perform speed and momentum evaluation, calculation and reconstruction in a graphic environment that makes it easy to use and indispensable by saving you days of calculations.
The Crash FX tool creates a live connection between your diagram and the 360 degree momentum solution. This tool allows you to calculate pre-skid velocity, impact velocity, and post impact ( separation ) velocity and many more important output details for verification via other calculation processes. Crash FX measures distances, and angles in real time. It allows multiple post impact deceleration zones, and curvilinear departure trajectories.
Features/Highlights:
- Momentum Analysis on your diagram
- Graphical momentum analysis
- Multiple friction zones
- calcluates friction based on vehicle rotation and braking
- Curvi-linear departure trajectories
- Advanced Reports
- Creates 2D & 3D Animations from momentum results
Works on your Diagram
Crash FX works directly with in your diagramming work space allowing you to see the results instantly. The Momentum Analysis can be performed on any diagram from any software package.
Graphical Momentum Analysis
User friendly momentum analysis, Crash FX lets you perform a momentum analysis by simply placing the vehicles at the impact and rest positions, and then placing the grips of the vector system at the relevant positions, moving will change values in the properties box allowing for a real-time sensitivity analysis.
RealTime Results
Graphical sensitivity analysis allows you to adjust vectors, and Crash FX will update the results in realtime.
Precise
Crash FX (based on the 360 degree momentum solution) has been verified by crash tests as well as mathematically; and proven to be the most accurate solution available.
Use the Vehicle Specs. Database to enter exact weights for the vehicle, passenger/s fuel and baggage, resulting in a more accurate reconstruction. Vehicles weights can be entered manually or selected using the exact vehicle from the vehicle specs database.
Multiple Friction Zones
Crash FX enables the user to add multiple friction zones that make it possible for the to allow for different road surfaces as well as for secondary impacts.
Curvilinear Departure
Many times vehicles depart impact in one direction, but the direction changes when the forces of the impact dissipate and tire forces begin to influence the vehicle direction.
Therefore, Crash FX enables you to position your departure vector based on the true departure angle.
Advanced Reports
Crash FX provides detailed reports of your Momentum Analysis, that are professional and can be used for presentations at court. Reports are available at the click of a button. The 4 page report even shows math in real math terms and is court accepted everywhere.
