β¦ Synopsis
Physical modeling together with analytical procedures are used to investigate the dynamic responses of a conventional lifeboat system, suspended from cables, in two conditions: integral and damaged, the latter related to failures of some structural and mechanical components. Moreover it is shown that friction breaks and shock absorbers can be used as efficient devices to minimise undesirable dynamic effects and prevent human injuries and structural collapse.

A mathematical model is introduced for simulating the contributions of shape deviations and mounting errors to the dynamic behaviour of single and multi-mesh geared systems. Parametric and external excitations are characterized by using the contact conditions for both rigid and deformable bodies. Th
