INVESTIGATION OF BOAT MOTION ON OCCUPANT IN PATROL BOATS

Occupants in high-speed patrol boats are subject to impact forces due to various boat motions. These impact forces should be precisely calculated and accounted for when designing seats for occupants. Hull design and cruising speed are the most critical parameters that cause shock and impact on the b...

INVESTIGATION OF BOAT MOTION ON OCCUPANT IN PATROL BOATS
description Occupants in high-speed patrol boats are subject to impact forces due to various boat motions. These impact forces should be precisely calculated and accounted for when designing seats for occupants.

In addition, seat design and material also have a major effect on the impact level sensed by the occupant. In this study, Altair software (Hypermesh and Radioss) is used to build a sample Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) seat and occupant model for patrol boats.
