On this page I inquire into how vehicle crashes occur, and what they look like.

IHSDM - Crash Prediction Module: http://www.tfhrc.gov/safety/ihsdm/crashweb.htm
. . . The Crash Prediction Module will estimate crash potential for a design alternative, including all roadway segments and intersections. Estimates will be quantitative and will include the number of crashes for a given roadway segment or intersection as well as percentage of fatal and severe crashes.
The module will allow the user to compare the number of crashes predicted over a given time period for different design alternatives, or perform sensitivity analyses on a single alternative . . .

PAM-CRASH: http://www.gmd.de/SCAI/europort-1/D3.HTM
Worldwide, well-known car manufacturers use PAM-CRASH for crash test simulations. Any new model will be tested using the original design plans of the car to simulate the effects of a crash.
PAM-CRASH is an explicit finite element package from the field of structure dynamics, one of the simulation packages of the ESI Group. (Other packages include the simulation of metal/material forming and fluid flow.)
Throughout the automotive industry, PAM-CRASH is widely adopted for crash and safety simulations, reducing the number of, or replacing, physical crash tests. Demands for accuracy, speed and improved price-performance ratio made PAM-CRASH an ideal code to show the benefits of parallel, distributed computing. The nonlinear finite element method used within PAM-CRASH lends itself to efficient parallelisation.
