“…In the forensic pathological literature there are numerous publications discussing the physical aspects of stabbing (63)(64)(65)(66)(67)(68)(69)(70)(71)(72)(73); the authors tried to quantify aspects of the amount of force used (stabbing intensity) and the dynamics of the stab.…”

Injuries caused by sharp or pointed objects are common. They rarely cause fatal injuries, however, and the fatality rate is estimated to be 3% at most. Most fatalities caused by sharp force are homicides. The ratio of homicide to suicide is estimated at 6:1 to 5:2. When investigating deaths owing to sharp force, the forensic pathologist is expected to give an opinion on the following points: the type of injuries; the number and anatomical distribution of injuries; the shape, size, length, and depth of injuries; the object (weapon) used; the amount of force needed to inflict the injuries; the extent of internal injuries; the cause of death; and the victim's capability to act. These points are of decisive importance for the reconstruction of the sequence of events and, thus, are essential for distinguishing between self-infliction and involvement of another party. Most homicides by sharp force are committed by males, often under the influence of alcohol. The most common tool used is a knife, but other pointed 65

“…The forensic literature contains numerous publications describing the physics of stabbing [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27], the characteristics of stab wounds caused by pieces of broken glass in particular have rarely been investigated, however. O'Callaghan et al described the relation between velocity, energy and penetration depth into the cervical tissue of a thrown piece of broken glass [2].…”

The only paper was published by O'Callaghan et al [38] and describes the relation between velocity, energy and penetration depth of a thrown glass shard.…”
