Book excerpt: Human factors literature that describes pilot response characteristics when confronted with aircraft warning, caution, and advisory signals was reviewed. The review covered visual, aural (sounds and voice), tactile, and bimodal alerts. Data obtained therefrom were categorized into (1) non-aircraft-related test results, (2) aircraft-related test results, and (3) military standards/design guidelines so as to establish the applicability of the data and to identify technical areas in which more human factors data relevant to aircraft-alerting systems may be required. Summaries of the literature for (1) factors that affect signal detection, and (2) factors that affect time from detection to response are provided. The results of the review were used to establish preliminary design guidelines for alerting systems in future commercial transport aircraft. (Author).

This book was released on 1977 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several recent studies, performed to develop optimum alerting methods for new alerts that had to be retrofitted to existing aircraft, identified as major alerting system problems the proliferation of alerting systems and the inconsistent application of alerting concepts in current commercial transport aircraft. The objective of this study was to address these problem areas in the following manner: refine and augment the stimuli response data collected under the previous studies, provide test plans for additional stimuli response tests required to complete the stimuli response data base, provide tabulations of the alerting methods and alerting requirements used on current commercial transport aircraft, develop a method for prioritizing alerting functions and prioritizing the alerting functions accordingly, note conflicts between current alerting requirements and the prioritized lists of alerts, and provide recommendations for standardization of alerting functions/methods. The output includes a collation of human factors data pertinent to alerting systems, cursory test plans for obtaining missing human factors data required to complete definition of and validate the standards recommended for alerting systems, criteria for alert priority levels, an example tabulation of alerts that might fall within each priority level, and recommended methods of annunciating the alerts within each priority level.

Download or read book Contemporary Issues in Human Factors and Aviation Safety written by Helen C. Muir and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every issue of Ashgate's Human Factors and Aerospace Safety: An International Journal publishes an invited, critical review of a key area from a widely-respected researcher. To celebrate a successful first three years of the journal and to make these papers available to a wider audience, they have been collated here into a single volume. The book is divided into three sections, with articles addressing safety issues in flight deck design, aviation operations and training, and air traffic management. These articles describe the state of current research within a practical context and present a potential future research agenda. Contemporary Issues in Human Factors and Aviation Safety will appeal to both professionals and researchers in aviation and associated industries who are interested in learning more about current issues in flight safety.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several recent high profile mid-air collisions highlight the fact that mid-air collisions are a concern for general aviation. Current traffic alerting systems have limited usability in the airport environment where a majority of mid-air collisions occur. A Traffic Situation Awareness with Alerting Application (TSAA) has been developed which uses Automatic Dependent -- Surveillance -- Broadcast (ADS-B), a Global Positioning System (GPS) based surveillance system, to provide reliable alerts in a condensed environment. TSAA was designed to be compatible with general aviation operations. It was specifically designed to enhance situation awareness and provide traffic alerting. The system does not include guidance or resolution advisories. In addition, the design was consistent with established standards, previous traffic alerting system precedents, as well as air traffic control precedent. Taking into account the potential financial burden associated with installation of a multi-function display (MFD), an audio based TSAA system was also designed to account for constrained cockpit space and added cost of a MFD. TSAA System performance & basic usability was tested using human in the loop studies using a total of 50 general aviation pilots. The studies also evaluated a number of design issues in order to provide recommendation for the final TSAA design. The system was found to be usable and generally effective for all of the encounter scenarios analyzed in both the audio-only and display systems. Performance was significantly improved in the enroute scenarios when a Cockpit Display of Traffic Information (CDTI) was available compared with aural alerts only. In most cases, pilots became aware and responded to traffic earlier when a display was available. Miss distance also increased. Analysis of the audio only system showed that performance improved when alerts were provided to the pilot when compared to performance without a traffic system for a head-on case highlighting the benefit of TSAA. Performance analysis of the final TSAA design showed that 98.7% of all collisions were avoided when TSAA was used. The 1.3% of collisions that did occur were due to the pilots' conscience decision to disregard an alert. The TSAA system was evaluated for functionality and usability. The findings of these studies will contribute to TSAA standards development for the FAA and design recommendations for the avionics manufacturers.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study, the fourth in a series having evolved from a study of independent altitude monitor requirements and alerting system criteria, has developed a set of substantiated guidelines for the design of aircraft alerting systems. In the course of this work, the FAA concluded that a system which went beyond the function of an alerting system might be useful. The study was extended to examine the question as to whether a system could function as a monitor of flight safety, a system that could aid the pilots in resolving problems and contribute to reducing the number of future accidents. The study established the feasibility of the concept of complementing the alerting system with a computer to perform the flight phase status monitor function. (Author).

This book was released on 1981 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is one of a series of documented studies directed to the improvement and standardization of aircraft alerting systems. The purpose of the study was to develop and validate, through simulation, functional design criteria that can be used in designing effective aircraft alerting systems. The major objectives of this phase of the study were to: resolve system component questions; validate the two candidate system/concepts by comparison to a representative baseline system, for both the pilot and flight engineer stations; evaluate presentation media and display formats for time-critical warnings; and develop guidelines for the design of alerting systems. This document presents a set of design guidelines directed to the improvement and standardization of aircraft alerting systems. The objective of the guidelines is not to define a simple hardware design that each manufacturer must use, but rather to provide functional design criteria that can be used to develop effective alerting systems, and to promote standardization within the industry.
