Abstract ……..

This work describes the development of emulation designs of the Combat System equipment consoles currently fitted in the control room area of the VICTORIA Class submarines and the subsequent manufacture of the console emulations in accordance with those designs. Physical data and specifications of the actual consoles were gathered and emulations, to be constructed of wood, plastics and light metals, were designed based on that data. After DRDC Atlantic approval of the designs, the construction of the console emulations were completed as designed. This work will enable the vVictoria capability evaluation laboratory to move toward successful set-up and readiness to conduct experimentation on facets of new Combat System concept development including equipment capabilities, system integration, optimum equipment configurations and human factors.

Résumé ….....

Le présent rapport porte sur le développement et la fabrication de modèles d'émulateurs des consoles de systèmes de combat actuellement installées dans la salle de contrôle des sous-marins de classe VICTORIA. Les émulateurs, faits de bois, de plastiques et de métaux légers, ont été fabriqués selon les données matérielles et les spécifications des consoles actuelles. RDDC Atlantique a approuvé les modèles, et ces derniers ont servi à la fabrication des émulateurs de console. Les présents travaux permettront la mise sur pied du laboratoire d'évaluation de la capacité vVictoria et assureront que celui-ci est prêt pour les essais de nouveaux concepts de système de combat, visant notamment les fonctions de l'équipement, l'intégration du système, les configurations optimales du système et les facteurs humains.

Executive summary

vVICTORIA Console Development: Design and Fabrication of VICTORIA Console Emulations

Keith Bowden, Earl Gosse; DRDC Atlantic CR 2010-155; Defence R&D Canada – Atlantic; July 2011.

Introduction: This work focuses on the design, specification and manufacture of VICTORIA Class Submarine Combat System console physical emulations. This project is part of an overarching project advanced by the Maritime Command and Control Concept Development (MC2CD) group at DRDC ATLANTIC to develop a laboratory replication of the Control room area of the VICTORIA Class submarine for experimentation in future Combat System Concepts. The work was carried out by ADGA Group Consultants Ltd in liaison with the MC2CD group.

Results: The design and specification of 11 console emulations were completed, followed by manufacture of 10 consoles, of which there were 7 copies of the Multifunction Console. Mockups were completed of the Aft-Sonar Rack, Chart table, Multi-Function Console and the One-Man Console was partially completed. A survey of commercially available user interfaces (keyboards, switches etc.) available to provide hardware emulation to actual console interfaces was completed. Key visible operator controls were installed in the primary Multi-function consoles.

Significance: The vVictoria is a prototype for the development of a C2 capability evaluation laboratory and will provide the necessary “stage area” for human factors experimentation on new concepts for submarine C2. This contract completed two critical parts of the development of vVictoria; first it provided designs for the mockup of all major control centre consoles, and secondly it provided the vVictoria with sufficient infrastructure for the project to demonstrate the expected end capability. While this contract did not cover the implementation of software or complete implementation of interfaces it demonstrated the viability of this approach and identified a number of important issues for future console emulation. In particular, the need to emulate in software the functionality of some types of hardware switches.

Future plans: The remainder of the consoles will be completed, outfitted and installed in the vVictoria lab as required for experimentation.

vVICTORIA Console Development: Design and Fabrication of VICTORIA Console Emulations

Keith Bowden, Earl Gosse; DRDC Atlantic CR 2010-155; R & D pour la défense Canada – Atlantique; juillet 2011.

Introduction : Les présents travaux portent sur les spécifications, la conception et la fabrication d'émulateurs physiques des consoles de systèmes de combat des sous-marins de classe VICTORIA. Ces travaux font partie d'un grand projet du Groupe d'élaboration de concepts maritimes de commandement et de contrôle de RDDC ATLANTIQUE, qui vise à émuler en laboratoire la salle de contrôle d'un sous-marin de classe VICTORIA afin de mettre à l'essai de futurs concepts de systèmes de combat. Les travaux ont été exécutés par ADGA Group Consultants Ltd de concert avec le Groupe.

Résultats : On a conçu les modèles de 11 émulateurs de console et rédigé les spécifications, puis fabriqué 10 consoles, dont sept reproductions de la console multifonction. Nous avons conçu des maquettes du bâti sonar arrière, de la table à cartes, de la console multifonction, et une maquette partielle de la console à un seul pupitreur. Nous avons étudié les interfaces utilisateurs commerciales (claviers, commutateurs et autres) disponibles pour fournir l'émulation matérielle aux interfaces de console actuelles. Des commandes opérateur clés visibles ont été installées dans les principales consoles multifonction.

Portée : Le vVictoria est un prototype pour le développement d'un laboratoire d'évaluation de capacité de contrôle et de commande et sera la « zone d'essai » nécessaire à l'expérimentation des facteurs humains sur de nouveaux concepts de fonctions de contrôle et de commande des sous-marins. Le présent contrat a mis fin à deux étapes essentielles du développement de vVictoria : il a permi la conception de modèles pour la maquette de toutes les principales consoles de contrôle centrales, et il a fourni une infrastructure suffisante à vVictoria pour faire état de la capacité finale prévue du projet. Même si le contrat ne portait pas sur l'implantation de logiciels ni l'achèvement de l'implantation d'interfaces, il a démontré la viabilité de cette méthode et a permis de cerner plusieurs problèmes importants quant à l'émulation de console future. Tout particulièrement, le besoin d'émuler par logiciels la fonctionnalité de certains types de commutateurs.

Recherches futures : Les autres consoles seront terminées, outillées et installées dans le laboratoire de vVictoria selon les besoins des essais.

1 Introduction

1.1 Subject of Report

This work focuses on the design, specification and manufacture of VICTORIA Class Submarine Combat System console physical emulations. This project is part of an overarching project advanced by the Maritime Command and Control Concept Development (MC2CD) group at DRDC ATLANTIC to develop a laboratory replication of the Control room area of the VICTORIA Class submarine for experimentation in future Combat System Concepts. The work was carried out by ADGA Group Consultants Ltd in liaison with the MC2CD group.

1.2 Outline of Report

This report is structured with an introduction covering some of the background information and motivation for the work, the methods used, results, analysis of results, along with a summary covering conclusions and recommendations. Much of the introductory information for this report is based on background material provided by DRDC Atlantic.

1.3 Background

The Canadian Submarine operational community, much impressed by the development capabilities offered by land based development facilities operating and in use by the United Kingdom and Australia, joined in discussions with DRDC Atlantic and the research community to determine the feasibility of building such facility within Canada. The vVictoria Shell laboratory project initiated by DRDC Atlantic came in to being as a result of this continuing dialogue. The vVictoria Shell project itself will provide the basic laboratory. As a physical replication of the Control Room area of the submarine it creates the “stage” for experimentation into many human factor issues associated with submarine command and control as well as the capability for concept evaluation and system integration and development activities. By making a full functional equivalent of the operational system available to capability developers, substantial portions of the development problem can be investigated and tested prior to transition to the operational fleet. In order for the vVictoria Shell space to fulfil its purpose it must have replications and emulations of the equipment normally fitted within the area so that operator actions and interactions can be observed, this console emulation project is one step in providing the emulations needed.

1.4 Motivation for vVICTORIA Consoles

The addition of the console emulations to the Shell will move the concept of the laboratory a major step closer to operational fruition. It is this desire to begin investigating many hitherto unanswered questions, many of them surrounding command and control team human factors issues that have been the motivating factor for the console emulation project.

1.5 Rationale for Consoles

In order that the vVictoria Laboratory is able to meet the varied experimentation and assessments that are anticipated as future capability needs, one of the most fundamental requirements of the vVICTORIA Shell is that the Combat System installations, while reflecting the current fleet fit, offer the maximum possible level of flexibility; flexibility in physical form and configuration, in system component location, and in software applications and functionality.

The use of real system hardware and software would be not only prohibitively expensive but also inflexible in all of the aspects of installation and use mentioned above. By using a replica of the consoles and emulating their functionality through software based models the overall cost is minimized and flexibility and ease of change are possible to a level required for successful experimentation.

2 Methods used

2.1 Background

The contract for the design and build of the vVICTORIA consoles was divided into two parts. The first part being also comprised of two Phases: Phase 1 encompassing the design and cost estimations for all the specified consoles, Phase 2 covering the construction of as many of the approved console designs as the part 1 budget allowed. In the execution of Part 1 of the contract two multi-function console emulations were built and delivered. In the second part of the contract, (Part 2 or Phase 3), the remaining consoles were to be constructed to the maximum that the contract budget would allow.

In order to complete the design of the console replicas a detailed knowledge of their physical appearance and dimensions was clearly essential; this was garnered through the study of an extensive catalogue of photographs taken of the consoles in situ in a VICTORIA Class submarine. This photograph study was combined with detailed measurements of the consoles physical dimensions taken from the actual consoles fitted for training purposes in the model rooms of the Submarine Training Department at the Canadian Forces Naval Operations School (CFNOS) in HMCS Stadacona.

2.2 Design Work The design work started with reviewing all of the information passed to ADGA by DRDC Atlantic, which included a list of all consoles, numerous photographs of onboard console fits, 3D photos, a March 2009 slide show depicting all of the Control Room equipment along with names, and 3D SketchUp models that could be viewed and manipulated with SketchUp 7.1 available from Google. Despite the volume of data available, seemingly sufficient to commence design of the consoles, such was not the case and it was found necessary to research other sources of information to obtain the physical data required to facilitate the emulation design to the accuracy required. This additional research included a visit to TWS-1, the Submarine School Tactical Weapons Maintenance Trainer, which was arranged by DRDC.

Two thrusts were pursued in the design work, one being the physical design drawings and the other being the research necessary to search out suitable components that would represent approximate functionality to the real equipment at an affordable price. The drawing design work was carried out using AutoCAD LT 2010 and formatted to be suitable for printing on 11x17 inch paper. Accumulation of suitable components was carried out primarily through an extensive Internet search. The design drawings are included in this report as Annex A and the AutoCAD Files are also included in the soft copy (CD) version of the report.

2.3 Construction The Construction of the consoles was carried out by two local carpenters and Weldpro, a local welding company. Both carpenters had their own workshops with adequate space and equipped with all the tools necessary for the manufacture and construction of the console shells. Weldpro fabricated one of the sonar racks during the second phase of the contract and one of the carpenters

fabricated two Multi-function consoles (MFC's) without painting or electrical components. The Subcontractors were provided with all the relevant console design drawings and were advised on drawing interpretation and material selection throughout the construction and painting process by the ADGA project engineers and designers.

3 Results

During the vVictoria Console Project’s third phase the following work was carried out:

a. The two original MFC's previously delivered during the first part of the contract (Phase 2 – post design), were painted and fitted with casters and made available to DRDC for a demonstration made to several senior Naval Staff members after which they were returned to ADGA to be fitted with keyboards etc.

b. The sonar rack was painted and fitted with casters and delivered to DRDC. c. An additional five MFC's were fabricated, painted and fitted with casters. d. Three of the MFC's were fitted with electrical components such as keyboards,

trackballs, keys, switches, power bars, USB's, etc. e. the plot table was fabricated and painted. f. the One Man Control (OMC) was fabricated and painted (minus PVC and

fittings). The primary construction material used throughout was 3/4" paint grade birch plywood and PVC with the exception of the sonar rack, which was fabricated of aluminum. Some of the completed consoles and detail are depicted in the following pictures.

4 Analysis of Results

The intent of this section is to highlight what are considered to be the more significant of the lessons learned during the execution of the project.

4.1 Design For the drawings, the selection of AutoCAD LT 2010 was a good choice. This was the latest version of AutoCAD available at the time of project start up and has many new productivity features; however, since it was the" LT" version it lacked the 3D capability of the full AutoCAD package, the lack of this capability was considered acceptable as 3D rendering of these drawings was unnecessary. However, selected drawings were completed in isometric view which provides a 3D perspective. DRDC provided an abundance of information and data to complete the design of the consoles and most of it was used to some extent. Unfortunately the data did not provide the dimensional accuracy that was required for some of this work. To take the Multi Function Consoles' (MFC’s) as an example, the 3D sketches, meant for SketchUp application, depicted flat sides, flat top and flat back. If the MFC's had been constructed to those dimensions then they would not have emulated the real consoles to the level of fidelity required, appearing unrealistic to experienced submariners and additionally would, in all likelihood, not have fitted properly in the control room mock up. The MFC's were assigned a high priority as they are expected to be the console of choice for all primary Combat System operator positions in the future. In view of this, the ADGA team took considerable pains to determine the physical characteristics of the console to a high degree of accuracy. Reliable information was gathered from various other sources beyond that which was provided by DRDC. In addition, a trip to the TWS-1 was arranged by DRDC which enabled the ADGA team to take accurate measurements directly from the various consoles. This activity applied primarily to the MFC's, the plot table and sonar consoles. The OMC is not installed in the TWS-1 hence first hand dimensional data was not available for this console. For the OMC, reliance was put on the SketchUp data provided by DRDC.

To summarize the accuracy of information gathered from various sources, it can be said that the accuracy of the MFC's physical dimensions are within two or three millimetres because they are based on accurate information gathered from multiple sources and because direct measurements were taken at the TWS-1. Some of the other measurements such as those of the OMC can be considered to be accurate only within two or three centimetres because reliance was totally on the SketchUp dimensions provided. Although SketchUp can be considered to be only of medium accuracy it was of tremendous benefit in cases where direct measurements could not be obtained.

A significant part of the design task was the identification of visible operator controls, switches and indicators. This task was carried out in large part by painstakingly searching the Internet, starting where possible with the Original Engineering Manufacturer (OEM) and then, where necessary, expanding the search to other manufacturers until an equivalent or substitute was found. The search was often made more difficult by lack of detailed knowledge of the total functionality of the component.

4.2 Fabrication With the exception of the Sonar Rack, the consoles were fabricated from 3/4" paint grade birch plywood, and where necessary faced with 1/4" PVC to facilitate fitment of components. One sonar rack was fabricated from aluminum. The choice of 3/4" hardwood plywood proved to be a good one because it was reasonably affordable and provided the structural integrity necessary for this application. The thickness of the plywood enabled edge screwing/nailing and gluing without the need for other structural elements. The PVC, at 1/4" thickness was a good choice for facing the consoles where required because it is thick enough to provide adequate structural rigidity and at the same time allowed the detailed cutting required for mounting components. The use of aluminum for the sonar rack was an obvious choice because of its open frame structure. It has a plywood bottom to allow for the fitting of casters. The manufactured rack under this contract is very similar to the actual “onboard” rack with the exception of the casters. Due to budgetary constraints, not all of the consoles were completed under this contract.

For painting, an oil based gloss Tremclad was selected for application over a latex primer. The use of oil based paint provided the hardest finish, but with the required application of multiple coats, the drying consumed more time. For the final layer of painting a dryer was mixed in the paint which reduced drying time to about 5 hours versus at least 24 hours without dryers.

4.3 Future Work Future work could include any or all of the following:

a. Completion of the remaining consoles, b. Refinement of some console design drawings to incorporate any requested changes or

modification and/or to increase dimensional accuracy should this be considered necessary for individual consoles,

c. Further sourcing of suitable and affordable electrical components, and installation in the consoles, and

d. Investigation into and incorporation of simulation/stimulation capability to further closely resemble real equipment. An example of this enhanced simulation capability might be to implement quality simulation screens that offer real world look and feel that greatly enhance a user’s experience.

5 Summary

5.1 Summary of Results and Analysis

The purpose of this report was essentially to describe the work carried out by ADGA in support of the DRDC Atlantic contract to construct submarine control room mockup consoles for the purpose of testing out human factors and new equipment concepts.

5.2 Conclusions

The following conclusions are offered:

a. The choice of materials, mainly paint grade plywood, aluminum and PVC, was suitable for the fabrication of consoles under this contract;

b. The choice of AutoCAD LT 2010 was appropriate for the design;

c. The cost of the consoles increases very quickly with increased conformity to onboard equipment;

d. Identification of operator control, indicator and switch components and/or substitutes would have been facilitated by specifications of individual component functions;

e. Taking first hand direct measurements are often necessary to acquire or confirm equipment dimensions;

f. Completing all consoles with all features was difficult to achieve within the available funds and Schedule;

g. Further work can be done to complete all consoles with the desired features; and

h. This endeavour is seen to be potentially very beneficial to Canadian submariners.

5.3 Recommendations

The following recommendations are offered:

a. Continued work to complete and/or enhance the consoles should follow the same material choices;

b. Addition of electronic components should be reconciled with the available budget;

c. Any design work associated with mock ups of real equipment should include site visits to confirm measurements;

d. All console operator control functions be defined;

It is not necessary to include here abstracts in both official languages unless the text is bilingual.)

This work describes the development of emulation designs of the Combat System equipment consoles currently fitted in the control room area of the VICTORIA Class submarines and the subsequent manufacture of the console emulations in accordance with those designs. Physical data and specifications of the actual consoles were gathered and emulations, to be constructed of wood, plastics and light metals, were designed based on that data. After DRDC Atlantic approval of the designs, the construction of the console emulations were completed as designed. This work will enable the vVictoria capability evaluation laboratory to move toward successful set-up and readiness to conduct experimentation on facets of new Combat System concept development including equipment capabilities, system integration, optimum equipment configurations and human factors.

Le présent rapport porte sur le développement et la fabrication de modèles d'émulateurs des consoles de systèmes de combat actuellement installées dans la salle de contrôle dessous-marins de classe VICTORIA. Les émulateurs, faits de bois, de plastiques et de métaux légers, ont été fabriqués selon les données matérielles et les spécifications des consolesactuelles. RDDC Atlantique a approuvé les modèles, et ces derniers ont servi à la fabrication desémulateurs de console. Les présents travaux permettront la mise sur pied du laboratoire d'évaluation de la capacité vVictoria et assureront que celui-ci est prêt pour les essais de nouveaux concepts de système de combat, visant notamment les fonctions de l'équipement,l'intégration du système, les configurations optimales du système et les facteurs humains.

14. KEYWORDS, DESCRIPTORS or IDENTIFIERS (Technically meaningful terms or short phrases that characterize a document and could be helpful in cataloguing the document. They should be selected so that no security classification is required. Identifiers, such as equipment model designation, trade name, military project code name, geographic location may also be included. If possible keywords should be selected from a published thesaurus, e.g. Thesaurus of Engineering and Scientific Terms (TEST) and that thesaurus identified. If it is not possible to select indexing terms which are Unclassified, the classification of each should be indicated as with the title.) Victoria; console; emulation
