This second edition, completely revised and expanded with a new chapter on lower extremity trauma, presents chapters written by widely recognized authorities in the field of human traumatic injury. The topics covered range from automobile restraint systems to cell and tissue biomechanics, and will interest a variety of scholars and professionals including physicians; biomechanical researchers; mechanical, biomedical and automotive engineers; as well as attorneys and jurists involved in accidental injury cases.
This report, based on information obtained through the National Accident Sampling System (NASS) in 1979 and 1980, emphasizes the magnitude, characteristics and consequences of motor vehicle traffic accidents in the United States. Following a summary presentation of 1979-80 accident statistics, there are discussions of the statistics with regard to accident consequences, the roadway and the environment, vehicles (passenger cars, light trucks and vans, large trucks, motorcycles, and other motor vehicles), drivers, pedestrian and bicyclists, and special uses of NASS data. The four appendices contain information on NASS Sample Design, NASS Data Elements: Continuous Sampling System, comparison of NASS 1980 estimates with 1979 estimates and with data from other sources, and size of data base.
