PEDESTRIAN CRASH MODEL FOR VEHICLE SPEED CALCULATION AT ROAD ACCIDENT

In this paper is treated the problem of vehicles speed calculation in case of pedestrian crash at road accidents. For determination of speed is used the software model in concrete cases of road pedestrian's accidents. Also for analyses is used mathematical method and are compered results. Those methods take into account several factors such as: pedestrian length and weight, frontal profile of the vehicles, technical characteristics of vehicles, road friction, throw distance of pedestrian after the collision, road conditions e.c.t. The research was conducted based on concrete cases of pedestrian crash in Kosovo and simultaneously software simulations were used to analyses crash process. Caused damage in the vehicles involved in pedestrian crash are compared with software simulation process.
