The aim is to get basic data for testing impact energy resistance of stable fittings and building elements. The goal is to quantify potential impact energy of horse kicks in order to elucidate the implication of “sufficient strength to resist horse kicks”, which is a demand for stable fitting material by law. To make the demand clear serves authorities, horse keepers, stable fitting manufacturers and it might reduce the risk of injuries of stabled horses.
Measuring hoof velocity changes during a kick will be done with the help of accelerometer with gyroscope fixed on the rear hoof. Horses used, standardbreds and thoroughbreds, are provoked to kick out. Impact energy will be calculated based upon earlier results about impact forces and impulses of horse kicks.
The results will be published in scientific press and as summary in Swedish, accessible on internet to download freely. The results will be used in order to work out a test method and equipment within Swedish Standards Inst.
Syftet är att få underlag för testning av konstruktioners förmåga att motstå stötförlopp motsvarande belastningen från en reell
hästspark. Målet är att kvantifiera hästsparkas potentiella stötenergi för att klargöra vad djurskyddsföreskriftens krav på att hästboxar ska ha ” tillräcklig hållfasthet för att stå emot hästsparkar” innebär, vilket är till nytta för myndigheter, hästhållare och tillverkare, och i förlängningen, torde minska hästars skador och lidande i samband med inhysning.
Mätning av hovens hastighet (hastighetsförändringar) under spark sker med hjälp av accelerometer med gyroskop fäst på bakhov. Använda hästar, halv- och fullblod, provoceras till att sparka bakut. Med hjälp av tidigare framkomna stötkrafter och impulser vid spark mot mätvägg beräknas anslagsenergier.
Resultaten publiceras i vetenskaplig press, samt en sammanställning görs på svenska som läggs ut för fri nedladdning via SLU. Resultaten kommer att användas för att utarbeta en testmetod inom ramen för SIS.

A cornerstone of the Swedish Food Strategy is trust in Swedish food production. Yet each year Swedish farmers and food processors lose both money and trust due to food fraud, especially for non-Swedish meat relabelled as Swedish. Most fraud remains undetected.
