A method for simulating forward falls and controlling impact velocity

Assessment of protective arm reactions associated with forward falls are typically performed by dropping research participants from a height onto a landing surface. The impact velocity is generally modulated by controlling the total height of the fall. This contrasts with an actual fall where the fa...
