For automotive engineers involved in crash reconstruction and analysis, a knowledge of basic accident reconstruction principles and techniques is essential, but often insufficient to answer all of the questions posed by design engineers, regulators, and lawyers. This course takes participants beyond the basics of accident reconstruction to physical models and analysis techniques that are unique to the reconstruction of single-vehicle rollover crashes.

The Accident Reconstruction MicroLearning Library is a collection of 25 concise videos on different topics related to crash scene investigation. These videos provide practical, applicable knowledge that you will immediately be able to use in the field. Whether you have a need to know about ADAS systems, tires, or commercial vehicles, these videos touch on a wide range of instructional areas and are taught by experts in the field.

From lenses to composition, these videos cover everything you need to know when photographing accident reconstruction. Join accident reconstruction expert Tom Vadnais as he demonstrates how to photograph trucks, passenger vehicles, and accident sites, as well as a looks at must-have photography equipment.

Participants learn what a drone is and how this tool can aid them in producing an orthomosaic map of an accident scene/location. Participants will learn basic drone safety, operations, and best practices, and will understand how to address airspace basic steps to achieve their Part 107 federal aviation administration (FAA) certification.

One of the most important safety critical components on cars, trucks, and aircraft is the pneumatic tire. Vehicle tires primarily control stopping distances on wet and dry roads or runways and strongly influence over-steer/under-steer behavior in handling maneuvers of cars and trucks. The inflated tire-wheel assembly also acts as a pressure vessel that releases a large amount of energy when catastrophically deflated. The tire can also serve as a fulcrum, both directly and indirectly, in contributing to vehicle rollover. This course covers these facets of tire safety phenomena.
