Court Testimony Experience
Combining academic research with applied forensic engineering, this Ph.D. mechanical engineer and Licensed Professional Engineer brings more than 20 years of experience in mechanics, kinematics, and impact analysis. His work integrates peer-reviewed research in videogrammetry and motion tracking with hands-on collision investigation and engineering evaluation. He holds graduate and undergraduate degrees in mechanical engineering and has published and presented research on videogrammetry-based motion tracking and dashcam video analysis for vehicle speed determination, demonstrating specialized expertise in extracting quantitative engineering data from photographic and video evidence. His technical competencies include force reconstruction of low-damage vehicle impacts, time–distance and kinematic analysis, acceleration and vibration measurement, and three-dimensional reconstruction using photogrammetry and videogrammetry.
His practice includes accident investigation and collision analysis, impact computation, photographic damage assessment, non-ballistic trajectory analysis, and failure analysis of ladders and similar structures. He also has experience in corrosion modeling, materials evaluation, numerical and finite element modeling, and vibration analysis. Licensed as a Professional Engineer, he provides expert opinions in matters involving impact mechanics, motion analysis, and engineering evaluation of physical evidence. He has more than 5 years of expert witness experience, including consultation, deposition, and courtroom testimony in engineering-related disputes.
