TY - JOUR TI - Numerical modeling of the dynamic impact of transport stretchers on patients in a moving ambulance AU - Nowak, Marcin AU - Wikłacz, Marcin TI - Numerical modeling of the dynamic impact of transport stretchers on patients in a moving ambulance AB - The paper presents numerical simulation of an ambulance transport system which consists of three elements: the stretcher, the frame which holds the stretcher and a part of the ambulance. The model was designed with the use of SolidWorks 2013 software. The numerical analysis was done with the use of ANSYS Workbench 13 software. During the first stage the natural frequencies and the forms of vibrations of the model were determined. During the second stage the dynamic excitations on the transport system were simulated.
