Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experiments described had three main objectives: First, to validate the recommendations for an improved Man Machine Interface (MMI) design based on a Phase I experiment on the human factors of data link in glass cockpits. Second, to investigate the effect of directly loading data linked Air Traffic Control (ATC) instructions into the various avionic systems (gating) on crew performance and finally, to study the effectiveness of different alerting schemes to ATC uplinks. The experiment was performed by the National Aerospace Laboratory (NLR) using their moving base Research Flight Simulator (RFS) which was configured to represent realistic, gate to gate, flight operations. A total of 9 crews participated for 6 flights lasting appr. 50 minutes each. Flight scenarios were routed from Amsterdam airport to London airport and back. Each pair of flights was performed with a different level of gating and associated procedures. Alerting schemes were studied, varying the use of distinctive aural alerts and the use of different alerting schemes depending on "message criticality." Results showed a dramatic increase in the crew acceptance levels of data link, as compared to the Phase I experiments, validating the recommendations based on these studies. Successful factors were: putting more emphasis on operational relevant page layout and the use of more practical procedures. Further results showed a preference for auto loading the Flight Management System (FMS) type of information as compared to an auto loading capability including Mode Control Panel (MCP) entries. Finally the results suggested that an alerting scheme using a distinct but 'non-annoying' aural alert should be preferred.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides a synthesis of research results and literature culminating in specific human factors recommendations for Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) systems. The report concentrates on two major human factors top areas; system operability, and system implementation. System operability includes issues such as display location, crew alerting, and message formatting, etc. System implementation includes issues such as situation awareness/party line, airspace environment, mixed modality communications, etc. The findings provide a synthesis of past Data Link research and specifically address the work performed by or supported by the Technical Center's Airborne Data Link Group (ADLG) over the past several years. The goal of the Technical Center's research is to support rulemaking, certification, and the testing of air traffic control (ATC) systems in end-to-end environments.
Download or read book Human Factors Guidelines for the Evaluation of Airborne Data Link written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to provide human factors specialists and certification authorities with a consolidated set of tailored guidelines that can be employed to evaluate the designs of actual or proposed airborne Data Link systems. The guidelines deal with the human factors aspects of the pilot's interface, particularly those affecting the design of the computer software, and display/control hardware comprising such systems. The guidelines were compiled from a number of recognized sources that have been successfully employed by human factors practitioners to design and assess computer-human interfaces in recent years. Guidelines for interface software were derived primarily from those developed by Smith and Mosier (1986). Guidelines for the physical design of display/control hardware were obtained, to a large extent, from MIL-STD-1472D (1989), which is often cited in government procurement contracts.

Download or read book Human Factors for Civil Flight Deck Design written by Don Harris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human error is now the main cause of aircraft accidents. However, in many cases the pilot simply falls into a trap that has been left for him/her by the poor design of the flight deck. This book addresses the human factors issues pertinent to the design of modern flight decks. Comprising of invited chapters from internationally recognised experts in human factors and flight deck design, contributions span the world of industry, government research establishments and academia. The book brings together the practical experience of professionals across the human factors and flight deck design disciplines to provide a single, all-encompassing volume. Divided into two main parts, part one of the book examines: the benefits of human engineering; flight deck design process; head down display design; head-up display design; auditory warning systems; flight control systems, control inceptors and aircraft handling qualities; flight deck automation; and human-computer interaction on the flight deck and anthropometrics for flight deck design. Part two is concerned with flight deck evaluation - the human factors evaluation of flight decks; human factors in flight test and the regulatory viewpoint Of interest to all human factors professionals operating in high technology, high-risk dynamic industries as well as those engaged directly in aerospace activities, the book will also be of key importance to engineers with an interest in human factors for flight deck design, academics and third year and post-graduate human factors/ergonomics and psychology students.

Download or read book A Human Error Approach to Aviation Accident Analysis written by Douglas A. Wiegmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human error is implicated in nearly all aviation accidents, yet most investigation and prevention programs are not designed around any theoretical framework of human error. Appropriate for all levels of expertise, the book provides the knowledge and tools required to conduct a human error analysis of accidents, regardless of operational setting (i.e. military, commercial, or general aviation). The book contains a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), which incorporates James Reason's model of latent and active failures as a foundation. Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure. It attracts a very broad readership. Specifically, the book serves as the main textbook for a course in aviation accident investigation taught by one of the authors at the University of Illinois. This book will also be used in courses designed for military safety officers and flight surgeons in the U.S. Navy, Army and the Canadian Defense Force, who currently utilize the HFACS system during aviation accident investigations. Additionally, the book has been incorporated into the popular workshop on accident analysis and prevention provided by the authors at several professional conferences world-wide. The book is also targeted for students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University which has satellite campuses throughout the world and offers a course in human factors accident investigation for many of its majors. In addition, the book will be incorporated into courses offered by Transportation Safety International and the Southern California Safety Institute. Finally, this book serves as an excellent reference guide for many safety professionals and investigators already in the field.
