The impact-resistance analysis of a fastening belt of an underwater vehicle life raft

In this paper, the impact resistance of a fastening belt of the underwater vehicle life raft is studied, which is based on Germany BV043/85 standard. Performing finite element simulation for the fastening belt with ANSYS Workbench software. Calculating the deformation and stress distribution of the fastening belt under impact loading. This method can accurately reflect the impact resistance of the fastening belt. Comparing with the design requirements can verify the reliability of the fastening belt.
