Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Research Methodology
- Experimental “crash-test” research conducted with the participation of volunteers;
- Simulation studies performed in the MSC ADAMS program.
3. The Course of Experimental Research
4. The Course of Simulation Tests
- system of rigid bodies;
- known dimensions, masses, and moments of inertia;
- a model in which the movement takes place on a three-dimensional plane;
- connection of solids by means of joints;
- the only input affecting the system is the initial speed vx (chair speed);
- belts and seats modeled on the basis of experimental research.
