Excessive ship motions may hinder the vessel's ability to complete its mission such as the deployment and recovery of small boats or aircraft. A measure of an individual's ability to complete a specific task while on board a moving ship is the motion-induced interruptions [2] (MII). It gives an indication of the number of events in which a ...
