Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two experiments tested human subjects under whole-body vertical vibration to (1) compare effects on performance of 5 cps sinusoidal, 5 cps random amplitude, and 4-12 cps random vibration equated on the basis of power, and (2) determine acceleration levels at which significant performance decrements are found for each type of vibration. The complex experimental task required two-dimensional compensatory tracking, visual monitoring, and auditory monitoring during 20-minute vibration exposures at levels equated to 5, 15, 25, and 30 percent of the 1-minute human tolerance values for 5 cps sinusoidal vibration. Performance decrements under vibration were restricted to tracking, the most demanding component of the task complex. Tracking performance deteriorated with increasing acceleration levels of each type of vibration. Overall performance differences associated with the different types of vibration equated on the basis of power were not significant. A number of task and procedural variables, including task difficulty, work-rest cycle, and prior experience appear to be important determinants of performance capabilities and fatigue effects found in vibration studies, indicating a need for further investigation of these variables.

Download or read book Workload Transition written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workload transition is a potentially crucial problem in work situations wherein operators are faced with abrupt changes in task demands. People involved include military combat personnel, air-traffic controllers, medical personnel in emergency rooms, and long-distance drivers. They must be able to respond efficiently to sudden increases in workload imposed by a failure, crisis, or other, often unexpected, event. This book provides a systematic evaluation of workload transition. It focuses on a broad spectrum of activities ranging from team cooperation to the maintenance of this problem on a theoretical level and offers several practical solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking an integrated, systems approach to dealing exclusively with the human performance issues encountered on the flight deck of the modern airliner, this book describes the inter-relationships between the various application areas of human factors, recognising that the human contribution to the operation of an airliner does not fall into neat pigeonholes. The relationship between areas such as pilot selection, training, flight deck design and safety management is continually emphasised within the book. It also affirms the upside of human factors in aviation - the positive contribution that it can make to the industry - and avoids placing undue emphasis on when the human component fails. The book is divided into four main parts. Part one describes the underpinning science base, with chapters on human information processing, workload, situation awareness, decision making, error and individual differences. Part two of the book looks at the human in the system, containing chapters on pilot selection, simulation and training, stress, fatigue and alcohol, and environmental stressors. Part three takes a closer look at the machine (the aircraft), beginning with an examination of flight deck display design, followed by chapters on aircraft control, flight deck automation, and HCI on the flight deck. Part four completes the volume with a consideration of safety management issues, both on the flight deck and across the airline; the final chapter in this section looks at human factors for incident and accident investigation. The book is written for professionals within the aviation industry, both on the flight deck and elsewhere, for post-graduate students and for researchers working in the area.
