PROJECT, ACCIDENT, AND FORENSIC PHOTOGRAPHY

Oftentimes, photographs are the only evidence that remains of a wreck or of subjects before or during tests. Making consistently good images during any inspection is a critical part of the evaluation process.

Many technical projects, most vehicle and component testing, and all accident reconstructions, product failure analyses, and other forensic investigations, require photographic documentation. Anyone involved in these technical pursuits must be able to create professional images regardless of the lighting or physical conditions. Photographs should not be “okay” or “close enough” any more than calculations or analysis should be. If the project is important enough for accurate calculations, it is important enough for accurate photographs. After testing and analysis is complete, results must be presented in court, to boards, management, or peer groups, or in reports and technical papers. This course will provide the skills necessary to consistently produce high-quality photographs for any purpose. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Consistently produce quality photographs • Create complete and meaningful photographic record of any project, accident, or testing • Ascertain what equipment works, and why • Describe the photographic process used, from equipment through post-processing (necessary for many court proceedings and peer-reviewed papers) • Develop a consistent methodology for post- processing and distribution of images WHO SHOULD ATTEND Individuals who must take photographs as part of their field of work; including: accident reconstructionists, product failure analysts, forensic scientists and engineers, testing and development engineers, human factors experts, biomechanical and biomedical experts, police agencies, government agencies, and anyone needing to illustrate technical papers or books.

ACCESSING AND INTERPRETING HEAVY VEHICLE EVENT DATA RECORDERS ”Excellent course for anyone

dealing with data extraction and support of Heavy Vehicle EDR’s!”

Recent advances in commercial vehicle equipment have increased the potential for incident-related data to be recorded surrounding a collision event. What some have called a “black box” is more properly referred to as a Heavy Vehicle Event Data Recorder (HVEDR) as defined by the SAE J2728 HVEDR Recommended Practice. The term HVEDR is used to describe any type of electronic function that has the capability of storing data surrounding a defined event within an electronic control module found on a heavy truck or bus and that communicates on the SAE J1939 or J1587/J1708 data communications protocol. This course highlights the various vehicle systems and triggering events that may provide data useful in a collision investigation. Guided by recognized industry experts, techniques for preservation and interpretation of HVEDR data will be explored. This highly interactive workshop includes in-class instruction, demonstrations and practical hands-on experiences for acquiring and analyzing data from commercial vehicles. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By completing this workshop, you will be able to: • Identify the potential sources of HVEDR data available on commercial vehicles • Utilize various methodologies for accessing and imaging data from HVEDRs while preserving the data in its original electronic format within the control module • Compile documentation of the vehicle and the imaged HVEDR data to properly establish foundational facts that tie the data to the vehicle and to ensure the reliability of incident specific data • Properly interpret data from HVEDRs and understand the limitations of this data • Analyze HVEDR data in the context of collision reconstruction WHO SHOULD ATTEND This course is a must for anyone involved in the investigation and analysis of commercial vehicle crashes who needs to understand the types of event data that are available on commercial vehicles, how it is generated, how it is accessed from the vehicle, and how to apply it in a collision reconstruction.

FUNDAMENTALS OF MOTOR VEHICLE FIRE INVESTIGATION

”A state-of-the-art presentation of the technological realities of post-fire inspection. Essential knowledge for the professional fire investigator.”

In this highly interactive, hands-on course, you will acquire a working knowledge of fire science and be able to use this knowledge to assess possible ignition mechanisms, evaluate burn patterns, and analyze fire spread. This course also explores the interpretation and limitations of the physical evidence from a fire scene. The approach to collecting and retaining important physical evidence, and laboratory techniques to examine this evidence, will also be described. As an in-class project, you have the opportunity to inspect several burned vehicles, predict cause and origin and compare findings to the actual cause and origin of the fire, as shown in burn test videos. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Apply fundamental combustion concepts to evaluate possible ignition mechanisms, burn patterns, and fire spread • Recognize the value and limitations of burn patterns to determine the area of origin of a fire • Describe the typical burning characteristics of motor vehicle fires • Identify and retain important physical evidence during a structure or vehicle fire inspection • Utilize laboratory techniques to evaluate physical evidence recovered from a fire scene WHO SHOULD ATTEND This seminar is designed for engineers, scientists, investigators and consultants involved in the investigation of vehicle fires. Please be advised, this course involves one or more of the following: driving and/or riding in a vehicle; participating in a vehicle demonstration; and/or taking part in an offiste tour using outside transportation.

APPLYING AUTOMOTIVE EDR DATA TO TRAFFIC CRASH RECONSTRUCTION

“One of the best seminars ever attended. Excellent presentation; well worth cost; will assist me in future work.” David Sherpardson Consultant D.J. Shepardson & Assoc. LLC

This course provides you with the skills necessary to analyze EDR data that has already been imaged, apply it to crash reconstruction, and reconcile it with calculations using other data sources. The class presents the generic analysis step by step, then groups EDR’s into manufacturer-specific families and their data limitations, and works case studies that highlight targeted key learning objectives. Your also learn key points to satisfy court Frye and Daubert requirements for EDR data to be admissible, and suggested methods to present EDR data that will communicate the data understandably to attorneys and lay juries. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Describe EDR sensor operation, recording interval and duration, resolution, accuracy, and time latency and articulate the limitations of applying the data to crash analysis • Calculate min and max speeds prior to loss of control or braking, and at impact based on the last accurate EDR pre-crash speed data point • Evaluate EDR vs. actual ground speed for specific vehicle operational conditions and vehicle equipment modifications • Calculate speed at impact and closing speeds by combining EDR Delta V data with normally collected scene and vehicle data such as post crash travel distance, departure angle, drag factor, and vehicle weights • Apply data to inline rear end, head on, and angular collisions • Reconcile EDR data with other physical evidence and combine to narrow speed ranges • Use time-distance and overlay EDR data on scene maps/diagrams to show where critical driving inputs were made vs. inputs required to avoid collisions
