Resumen

During the process of emergency landing, the energy of the impact in the vertical direction is dissipated through the deformation of the structure. The landing load is transferred to the spine of the occupant through the landing gear, the fuselage and finally the seat. This can cause serious damage to the human body. Since the seat is in direct contact with the human body, the energy absorption capacity of the seat is the most direct manifestation of the Crashworthiness of the helicopter. The solutions proposed in the paper may reduce the impact of the seat on the spine of the occupant during the collision by optimizing the key energy-absorbing structure. Taking the seat of the H135 helicopter as a case, the mechanical model of the human?seat coupling system, which is based on the theories of energy methods and structural mechanics, is simplified. Additionally, the simulation was considered reasonable by comparing the simulation results with the results of crashworthiness tests. On the basis of the above, the optimization of the key energy-absorbing structure of the seat was completed by using Latin hypercube sampling and the kriging model. Overall, the optimization effectively enhanced the crashworthiness of this helicopter seat and provided a solution for the passive safety design of aviation seats.
