    Abstract: A blast mitigation seat for a land vehicle may include an occupant seat, at least one retraction device mounted to the seat, a first set of webs connected between the seat and a ceiling and/or a wall of the land vehicle, a second set of webs connected between the at least one retraction device and the ceiling and/or the wall of the land vehicle, and a third set of webs connected between the seat and the vehicle floor. The seat is suspended in the land vehicle by the first and third sets of webs. The first set of webs absorbs energy resulting from detonation of an explosive device beneath the floor of the land vehicle that forces the land vehicle from the ground into the air, and the second set of webs absorbs energy resulting from subsequent impact of the land vehicle with the ground.
