The human body is a complex specimen: at GTD Scientific, we are experts in the study and use of injury biomechanics and human kinematics (event motion).
Our personnel collaborate closely to quantitatively understand how traumatic injuries occur by using medical records, diagnostic images, scientific literature, data collected, and mathematical dynamic modeling software (MADYMO), to create a comprehensive biomechanical assessment. This assessment, together with an incident reconstruction, ensures a dependable and comprehensive understanding of the event and resulting injuries.
GTD Scientific’s work includes assessing product design features and their effect on an event, then biomechanically evaluating any changes in product design, including alternative products, and use. Product information and the environment are then used to obtain a comprehensive answer. These investigative results can answer questions about misuse, non-use, or failure of product components, including safety features.
