Abstract - This paper is based on the study of Design and Analysis of Multifunctional Seats Used in Military Vehicle. Border Security Technologies are being adopted by every country to ensure the safety and sovereignty of their nation. It is crucial to study and understand the latest advancements in security technologies to effectively protect against evolving threats. Just as countries are advancing in defence the threats, they face are also evolving necessitating the upgrading of defence system. Multifunctional Special Vehicles play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of their crew during operational tasks. These vehicles are equipped with specially designed seats that offer a high level of protection in the event of collisions or explosive detonations. The proposed modular structure of these seats brings numerous advantages, including cost reduction using repeatable elements and the ability to easily customize seats with different functions. Moreover, this modular structure enables a faster restoration process in case of any damage. It is essential for the modules to be versatile and adaptable to various seat configurations, considering factors such as their location within the vehicle (e.g., driver's seat, troops' seats, system operators' seats), installation method (e.g., wall, floor, ceiling), and assembly direction (e.g., side mount, rear mount, bottom mount).
Key Words: Analysis of Multifunctional Seat, explosion-proof seat, absorb explosion energy, Study of Vibration, Human body Impact and Safety in Transport.
