Book Procedures for Including Human Engineering Factors in the Development of Weapon Systems

Download or read book Procedures for Including Human Engineering Factors in the Development of Weapon Systems written by Harold P. Van Cott and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At each stage in the development of a new weapon system appropriate action must be taken regarding the eventual role which men will play in operating and maintaining the completed system. The use of systematic procedures for solving problems and making decisions with respect to these human engineering factors, and for articulating them with other aspects of system development, assures that the weapon system emerges as a maximally effective man-machine system. This report is intended to suggest systematic procedures for the human engineering of developmental weapon systems. A brief discussion of man-machine systems and the role of human engineering in their design is followed by a design schedule. This schedule suggests at what points and in what ways human engineering should be accomplished. Following the design schedule, procedures that may be used to assess and solve human engineering problems are suggested. Finally, human capabilities and limitations are discussed from the point of view of the man as a system component."--Abstract.

Book Reverse Engineering  Human Factors  Manpower  Personnel  and Trainng in the Weapon System Acquisition Process

Download or read book Reverse Engineering Human Factors Manpower Personnel and Trainng in the Weapon System Acquisition Process written by D. M. Promisel and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the Reverse Engineering Project is to identify how and where to influence the acquisition process to result in effective use of soldiers in weapon systems. The project was initiated by the U.S. Army Research Institute at the request of General Maxwell Thurman while he was Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel. It was his position that careful examination of the development process of several Army weapon systems would provide specific illustrations of human factors, manpower, personnel and training (HMPT) issues and identify critical events in the weapon system acquisition process (WSAP). If proper attention from an HMPT perspective were given to these critical events, then fielding of operationally useful systems would be facilitated. Approaches for accomplishing this would be developed based on the detailed information required from the study of the individual systems. A study was undertaken based ont he 'reverse engineering' of four systems: STINGER, Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS), BLACK HAWK (UH-60A), and the Fault Detection and Isolation Subsystems of the M1 tank. The term 'reverse engineering' is intended to suggest the process of determining how products of the WSAP came to be as they are. This is the final report of the project. It contains a description of the study process, brief summaries of the analysis of the individual systems, the synthesis of the four systems studies, and the recommendations and products that were developed.

Book Human Factors Engineering in Air Force Weapon Systems Acquisition

Download or read book Human Factors Engineering in Air Force Weapon Systems Acquisition written by and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the role that human factors engineering plays in Air Force systems acquisition. It focused upon the conceptual, validation and full-scale engineering development phases of the acquisition process since it is during these phases that the major benefits of human factors engineering can be derived. Based upon previous analyses, letter reports, and the author's personal experience, human factors engineering activities appropriate to these phases are discussed. A brief review of Department of Defense and Air Force systems acquisition policy pertaining to human factors engineering is also presented. Some applications to present weapon programs are identified and discussed. It was concluded that the success of human factors engineering efforts is directly related to the management emphasis and priority given to consideration of the man-machine interface. Recommendations include strengthening the human factors engineering focal point and improvement of the human factors engineering career field to provide the necessary emphasis and resources for human factors engineering implementation.
