| چکیده | ||
| In this study, the influence of the stiffness and damping characteristics of the pilot seat cushion in the Bell 214 helicopter is investigated as two critical factors in reducing the transmission of vibrations to the pilot’s body. Since the dominant vibrations in the Bell 214 occur at low frequencies, typically between 2 and 15 Hz, the seat suspension system is not effective in this range, and the seat cushion plays a more significant role in vibration isolation. First, the biodynamic response of the human body is validated by comparing the results with existing experimental and analytical data related to helicopter vibration exposure. Then, the biodynamic equations of motion are analyzed using a four-degree-of-freedom seated human model under various configurations, with and without suspension and seat cushioning. Finally, the frequency domain response is examined through three-dimensional plots to evaluate the effect of different cushion stiffness and damping values. The results indicate that selecting optimal mechanical properties for the cushion can significantly enhance pilot comfort and play an effective role in reducing vibration-induced physical injuries. | ||
