Human-Structure Dynamic Interaction during Short-Distance Free Falls

<div>A typical experimentally measured time history of the impact force and the corresponding fitted 6th-order polynomial. The points in time representing the start of the impact (A), the maximum deformation (B), the secondary peak (C), and the end of restitution phase (D) are shown on the figure.</div>
