Overview (resum en anglès):
Turbulence is one of the big reasons why passengers are afraid of flying. Taking into account that in a near future they will increase due to climate change and the large traffic of airplanes, it has been wanted to modify the structure of the airplane seats, so that, although the airplane suffers turbulence, the passenger does not perturb. Thus, the main objective of this project is to increase the comfort of passengers during the flight.
The seat has been modeled as from the Stewart Platform, a type of parallel robotic manipulator made up of two platforms: one fixed and one mobile joined by six actuators.
In order to stabilize the turbulent movement, an accelerometer will be included to update, through a Matlab code, the length of the actuators based on the vibrations received.
First of all, turbulences will be defined and the types of aids available today to avoid them will be named, as well as the types of clouds responsible for such movements.
Secondly, the types of robotic manipulators will be defined, with emphasis on the Stewart Platform, as it will constitute the seat structure.
Then, the platform will be dimensioned and the type of damping to be used will be studied, as well as the connection with the aircraft's hydraulic system. The results of an accelerometer used in a BCN-MAH flight will also be analyzed to define the turbulence ranges. From here, the kinematics of the actuators will be studied to determine their length.
Finally, the materials that are going to make up the platform will be selected and their resistance will be studied, in addition to naming the airworthiness requirements that the seat has to satisfy.
