- W622366942 abstract "Twenty-five gasoline fire experiments and 17 laboratory collisions were conducted in an effort to determine the mechanics of gasoline fuel propagation during motorcycle crashes. Data from 34 real accidents were also analyzed to establish burn injury patterns. In 14 of the accident investigations, the motorcycle was modified from its stock configuration in a manner which directly affected the fuel system's integrity at collision or falldown. Fire propagation, burn injury mechanisms, variance in burning rates due to clothing, impact severity, and fuel system design are discussed, and the following tentative conclusions are drawn. Rescue attempts in motorcycle fires involving unmodified fuel systems can be made safely without the threat of a Hollywood type explosion. Early patting out of even saturated clothing can successfully limit the degree of burn injury, with minimal or no risk to the rescuer. Leather clothing can markedly diminish the rate of temperature rise to the skin, and leather worn over an insulating layer of cloth is even better. Clothing in layers, worn close to the body, can also provide significant protection, provided the outer layer is extinguished before the inner layer ignites." @default.
