چکیده

T H E A S T R O N A U T ' S journey into space w~ill require a series of adaptations to multiple sequential changes in environmental circumstances. These adaptations will involve an in,ter-relationship of more than one biological stress and more than one organ system. The success of the astronaut's flight into the cosmos may well hinge on his ability to make a series of interdynamic adaptations. Many of the biological stresses imposed by modern aircraft and proposed rocket type vehicles are acute in nature and may markedly influence the vital Ifunctions of the body, particularly the circulatory system. The abi.lity to make sequential adaptations to a variety of different biological stresses is greatly influenced by individual characteristics. Undesirable cardiovascular responses detected in apparently healthy persons indicate that many normal, healthy people are not suited for the journey into space. This report a ttemgts to highlight some of the acute problems which' must be considered on an individual basis ill conjunction with a rocket flight. The initial difficulties can begin at the time of rocket launching. With the subject placed in .the supine position, .being exposed to transverse G

A Novel Information Management Architecture for Maintaining LongDuration Space Crews

A key factor limiting long-duration space flight is the inability to maintain the crew effectively in weightlessness. Current approaches to crew preservation involve discrete experiments to measure physiologic adaptation and post flight evaluations to assess the effectiveness of countermeasures. As the length and complexity of missions increase, these approaches will be inadequate. A revolution...

Abnormality Detection in a Landing Operation Using Hidden Markov Model

The air transport industry is seeking to manage risks in air travels. Its main objective is to detect abnormal behaviors in various flight conditions. The current methods have some limitations and are based on studying the risks and measuring the effective parameters. These parameters do not remove the dependency of a flight process on the time and human decisions. In this paper, we used an HMM...
