This paper will outline the technical challenges of dynamic interface modelling & simulation, with a specific example of the Joint Shipboard Helicopter Integration Process (JSHIP). This program, one of the most ambitious helicopter simulation programs undertaken to date, has helped both to understand the potential of rotorcraft simulation today, and to realize the limitations of technology. The...

The decision making task of ship damage control includes addressing problems such as fire spread, floods, smoke, equipment failures, and personnel casualties. It is a challenging and highly stressful domain with a limited provision for real-life training. In response to this need, a multimedia interactive damage control simulator system, called DC-Train 2.0 was recently deployed at a Navy offic...
