  • Sailors' Work/Rest Schedule and Fatigue on a Canadian Patrol
    Sailors’ Work/Rest Schedule and Fatigue on a Canadian Patrol Frigate During Exercise Trident Fury 2015 Wenbi Wang, PhD Renee Chow, PhD Henry Peng, PhD Fethi Bouak, PhD Matthew Lamb Ken Ueno DRDC – Toronto Research Centre Defence Research and Development Canada Scientific Report DRDC-RDDC-2017-R048 June 2017 Template in use: © Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, as represented by the Minister of National Defence, 2017 © Sa Majesté la Reine (en droit du Canada), telle que représentée par le ministre de la Défense nationale, 2017 Abstract Sailors’ work, rest schedules and fatigue were collected onboard of the Her Majesty’s Canadian Ship (HMCS) Calgary during the 10-day Exercise Trident Fury 2015 for supporting the validation of sleep and fatigue prediction algorithms to be implemented in naval crewing analysis software, the Simulation for Crew Optimization and Risk Evaluation (SCORE). This report summarises the data analysis that was focused on the distribution of sailors’ daily times on various on-duty and off-duty activities, as well as the fluctuation of their fatigue throughout the exercise. The results identified distinctively different patterns of sleep for 1-in-2, 1-in-3 watch-standers and non-watch standers. Averaged across participants from all five ship departments, a moderate level of fatigue was observed during the exercise. Results from this analysis provide a benchmark for validating the sleep and fatigue prediction algorithms. Significance to Defence and Security SCORE is a bespoke crew modeling software developed by Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) for the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN). This report summarises the analysis of sailors’ work, rest schedules and fatigue during an at-sea trial.
