Original Abstract

Abstract

The offender-victim position in space is usually one of the central issues of a forensic trail of blood sample distribution analysis. This is based on the experience-based analysis of the individual blood trail complexes. Furthermore, geometric calculation models of stroke injection marks an essential part of the analytical reconstruction of the spatial position of a source of bleeding at the time of the violence. Taking into account the biophysical properties of blood different, based on the fluid mechanics and ballistics calculation models can be installed and reconstructed as a possible position in space. This paper provides an introduction to the ballistic aspects of stroke injection marks and shows how the interpretation of such blood track pattern can be substantially improved by involving calculation models.
