A study on the motion sickness characteristics of a high speed displacement monohull vessel at seas / 高速排水型單體船之人員暈船率分析

碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 系統工程暨造船學系 / 99 / Low frequent motions of vessel may cause motion sickness in rough seas. These undesirable effects induce fatigue of crews during the navigation. The motion sickness is always an important criterion for the high-speed craft design. Modern ferry designs have been marketed with a great emphasis on the seakeeping performance.

This research has been carried out by investigating the results on the vertical motion sickness incidence study for a monohull vessel at seas. The primary purpose of this research is to investigate the vertical motion sickness characteristics of a ship. The two-dimensional strip theory has been used for predicting the vertical acceleration responses of the high speed displacement monohull in oblique waves. The comparison between numerical predictions and experimental data shows a good agreement except that around the stern wave conditions.

The motion sickness incidence (MSI) assessments are based on the ISO-2631-1(1997) standard with the hydrodynamic analysis for determining the acceleration levels in different locations on the vessel. The effects of seating location, wave heading and duration of motion exposure on seasickness are discussed.
