Ergonomic aspects of crew seats in transport aircraft.

بررسی عوامل انسانی در شناورهای تندرو

Operational use of high speed crafts (HSC)s may lead to physical harmful effects on crew and as a result, performance reduction will be anticipated. The purpose of current research is a human factors analysis in the HSCs. In this paper, First we recognized the crew ergonomic difficult in an Iranian sea organization by a field survey (whit collaborate of 57 crew). Validity and reliability of res...

A Centennial Review of Sub-sonic Transport Aircraft

From Wright Brothers 1903 to present day 2003, aeronautical technology has made a profound progress. This paper demonstrates the outcome of this progress in weight, wing area, and engine thrust in three categories of transport aircraft of short to long range, regional jets, and turbo-prop commuter aircraft. Also the paper includes those aircraft with distinct jump in aeronautical technology. Fe...

Crew / Automation Interaction in Space Transportation Systems : Lessons Learned from the Glass Cockpit

The progressive integration of automation technologies in commercial transport aircraft flight decks -the “glass cockpit” -has had a major, and generally positive, impact on flight crew operations. Flight deck automation has provided significant benefits, such as economic efficiency, increased precision and safety, and enhanced functionality within the crew interface. These enhancements, howeve...
