Landings in the Soyuz vehicle have generated more injuries than models have predicted, and the reason for this remains unknown. Presently, 3 new capsule-type spacecraft—the Orion, the SpaceX Dragon2, and the Boeing CST-100—are in various stages of development. To better understand the injury risk to Soyuz crewmembers, and to mitigate risk of future injuries onboard the new vehicles, we conducted a finite element (FE) modeling effort. At the outset of this study, previously developed FE models were available for the seats in the 3 new vehicles, whereas the Soyuz environment had not been modeled in an extensible manner. Thus, a model of the Soyuz seat was necessary to facilitate comparisons of all seat types.
