My dads friend was killed by an older chainsaw, before chain breaks were a thing. Cutting firewood on the 4th of July and it kicked back and got him right in the throat.

Okay, real question. Chain brake fails, what is the likelihood of "chain skips off skull, big gash in forehead" vs "crack head open like a watermelon"

Would it really saw into him that fast? I mean, bone is harder than wood isn't it? Nasty injury definitely but don't you have to go in at least one inch before you hit brain?

The skull isn't an inch thick but it would take strong, sustained pressure to make a chainsaw go through it. Unintentional contact on an unbraced head would definitely skip off.

The chainsaw would kick off his head just like it did the joist or whatever. It would continually ping-pong back and forth until it ran out of gas.

The anatomy of this region of the skull is briefly described from a biomechanical perspective. Human cadaver investigations using unembalmed and embalmed and intact and isolated specimens subjected to static and various types of dynamic loading (e.g., drop, impactor) are described. Fracture tolerances in the form of biomechanical variables such as peak force, peak acceleration, and head injury criteria are used in the presentation. Lateral impact data are compared, where possible, with other regions of the cranial vault (e.g., frontal and occipital bones) to provide a perspective on relative variations between different anatomic regions of the human skull. The importance of using appropriate instrumentation to derive injury metrics is underscored to guide future experiments. shame on an IGA fucked around with this message at 23:10 on Aug 14, 2019 |

Icon Of Sin posted:I had the In the US you do tamper and flow tests quarterly to check that the sensors on valves and flow switches work; then once a year you run the fire pump to make sure it meets flow specification. Each of these puts the stagnant water in the sprinkler lines down the drain that smells just wonderful. We also have a periodic visual inspection of the pipes, which lets you experience the odor and get some scenery.

I kinda wish there was a way to specify 'no I'd like to be used for medical poo poo not to test the new Patriot Cannon or whatever the gently caress' but welp.

tbh i hate the idea of taking up space in a graveyard or being put into an object for someone else to have to deal with that may not necessarily want to so hearing that donating my body to science means i'll probably be shot out of a cool railgun into a wall makes me much more excited to do so

shame on an IGA posted:He rolled a 21 on his reflex save That's not really that disturbing, I've worked on similar projects with bones from other regions. It's actually really tricky to do right, because "real" bone is nice and wet and in the middle of flesh, which are things lab conditions are not great at recreating. Embalmed or even just dry bone doesn't really behave the same way at all. On the other hand, if you just stick a chunk of fresh leg or whatever into your test machine, you don't actually learn anything about the bone, because you have all the flesh in the way. Finding a method to get just bone, but realistic bone, is pretty tricky.
