This book was released on 1997-02-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects on flight performance of the four combinations of an unencumbered level-zero MOPP0 aviator battle dress uniform and encumbered MOPP4 over ABDU flight ensemble in cool and hot UH-60 simulator cockpit conditions were evaluated. This report describes the flight performance results. Every 30 minutes, the right seat pilot encountered instrument meteorological conditions and ascended to 2000 feet to perform a 10-minute set of standard maneuvers. After each iteration of the set of standard maneuvers, the pilot returned to nap-of-the-earth (NOE) and contour flight between control points. The right seat pilot also performed four 1-minute hovers (HOVs) and hover turns (HOVTs). The simulator's data acquisition system captured relevant combinations of airspeed, altitude, turn and climb rates, trim, and roll for each type of flight maneuver, as well as cyclic and collective inputs during HOV and HOVT. The encumbered MOPP4 uniform was associated with reduced averaged composite scores (ACS) for five of eight maneuvers. ACS values were significantly lower for 5 of 29 separately scored flight systems parameters. The hot temperature condition reduced the ACS for only one (RSRT) of eight maneuvers. For the iterations of the maneuvers flown with AFOS on, the encumbered MOPP4 ensemble was associated with significantly lower ACS for 3 of 8 maneuvers and 5 of the 29 separately scored flight parameters. With AFCS off, the encumbered MOPP4 uniform significantly degraded the composite ACS for 2 of 4 maneuvers comprising the set of standard maneuvers that were alternately flown with AFCS off and 5 of 17 separately scored flight parameters. The hot temperature was associated with reduced composite ACS values for two of the four flight maneuvers.

Download or read book Resource Utilization and Development written by Shri Kamal Sharma and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 1992 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between resources and development is the pivot around which the present study revolves. Focussing on the process of resource creation and utilization it emphasizes the need of equitable development integrating local needs, resources, people and functions. The resource exploitation and their utilization are two independent economic activities influenced by different algorithms and usually have manifested in core-periphery relationship. Reviews the persistent problems of economic development in perspective of exploitation of natural resources with the objective to provide some clues for occurrence and persistence of regional disparities and for suggesting a development model synchronising both the resource management and environmental protection.
Book Synopsis Heat Stress Effects of a Navy/USMC Vs. Army Aviator Ensemble in a UH-6O Helicopter Simulator by : Matthew Reardon
Download or read book Heat Stress Effects of a Navy/USMC Vs. Army Aviator Ensemble in a UH-6O Helicopter Simulator written by Matthew Reardon and published by . This book was released on 1998-02-01 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This aviator heat stress study used a between test subjects design with one environmental condition (hot) and two current (U.S. Navy/U.S. Marine Corps vs. U.S. Army) rotary wing MOPP4 ensembles encumbered with additional ballistic protective and overwater survival components. Four U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) aviators (2 UH-60 crews) were tested in the hot condition and their physiological, subjective, and flight performance responses compared to those of 14 Army aviators (9 crews) who tested in the same condition in a previous related study. The environmental condition consisted of 100 deg F (dry bulb) and 20 percent relative humidity (RH) in an environmental chamber where test subjects walked on a treadmill for 20 minutes to simulate preflight outdoor activities, and 100 deg F and 50 percent RH (90 deg F wet bulb globe temperature WBGT) in the UH-60 simulator. Every 30 minutes the right seat pilot encountered instrument meteorological conditions and ascended to 2000 feet to perform a 10 minute set of standard maneuvers. These maneuvers included straight and level (SL), right standard rate turn (RSRT), left climbing turn (LCT), and left descending turn (LDT). After each iteration of the set of standard maneuvers, the pilot returned to nap of the earth (NOE) and contour flight between control points. The right seat pilot also performed up to four 1 minute hovers (HOVs) and hover turns (HOVTs) in the 2 hour sortie and three in the second 2 hour sortie.

Reardon and published by . This book was released on 1996-12-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluated the effects of the four combinations of unencumbered MOPPO aviator battle dress uniform (ABDU) and encumbered MOPP4 over ABDU flight ensembles in cool (70 degrees F, 50 percent relative humidity (RH)) and hot (100 degrees F, 50 percent RH) UH-60 cockpit conditions. This report describes the physiological and psychological responses. The most striking, operationally relevant result was that none of the crews in the encumbered MOPP4 hot condition were able to complete the first two 2-hour sorties movements. The results of this evaluation suggest that future rotary-wing aviator flight uniform components should be designed to be lighter weight and allow greater evaporation of sweat. Methods should be sought to improve fit and comfort, particularly for the mask and helmet combination, as well as prevent pressure discomfort over the back due to the life raft. The 11.7 lb ballistic protective plate also should be lighter weight and reduced in thickness. Forced dry air microclimate cooling into the ensemble should be considered for reducing heat accumulation in the encumbered MOPP4 aviator ensemble by enhancing evaporative cooling and thereby increasing endurance times during hot weather operations.
Book Synopsis Effects of Microclimate Cooling on Physiology and Performance While Flying the UH-60 Helicopter Simulator in NBC Conditions in a Controlled Heat Environment by :
Download or read book Effects of Microclimate Cooling on Physiology and Performance While Flying the UH-60 Helicopter Simulator in NBC Conditions in a Controlled Heat Environment written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of microclimate cooling on aviator performance and physiology in nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) individual protective equipment (IPE) were evaluated in the USAARL UH-60 research flight simulator. Sixteen male aviators flew the simulator in two temperature conditions, 95 deg F and 105 deg F, both at 50 percent relative humidity (RH). Two thermoelectric conditioning units were used, one providing cooled blown air, the other cooled water to the aviators. At each temperature, they flew for up to 6 hours in NBC IPE with no cooling, air cooling, and liquid cooling. There was an extra condition at 105 deg F when vent air with no cooling was blown through the air vest, making a total of seven test conditions. There were significant improvements in flight performance as a result of the cooling, more so at the higher temperature. Also, there were differences between the two cooling systems at 105 deg F, with the air system producing significantly lower flight error rates. Survival time was based on the length of time each subject stayed in the condition before reaching physiological withdrawal criteria (rectal temperature of 39 deg C or heart rate of 150 beats per minute for 15 minutes) or exercising their option to retire early. There were considerable increases in survival time with the use of microclimate cooling. The mean survival time at 95 deg F was increased to 385 minutes with the liquid system from 285 minutes without cooling. At 105 deg F to 333 minutes for the air system from 79 minutes with no cooling, the improvement was even more dramatic. There were significant differences between the two cooling systems at 105 deg F with the air system producing longer survival times.

This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This aviator heat stress study used a mixed between/within test subject design with one environmental condition (hot) and three rotary-wing MOPP4 ensembles (Special Operations Aviation Regiment SOAR), Air Warrior Concept 1, and Air Warrior Concept 3) encumbered with ballistic protection and over- water survival components. The SOAR ensemble was tested with (SC) and without (SX) microclimate cooling (MCC) consisting of a water-cooled undershirt with portable refrigerator/pump. Air Warrior Concept 1 and Concept 3 aviator MOPP4 ensembles were tested with (AC) and without (AX) MCC, respectively. Physiological and subjective data were obtained to compare thermoregulatory responses and quantitate the benefits of microclimate cooling. Test sessions consisted of a 20-minute treadmill walk in a heated (100 deg F and 20 percent relative humidity RH) environmental chamber to stimulate outdoor preflight activities, followed by three 2-hour sorties in a research UH-60 simulator with cockpit conditions set at 1000F and 50 percent RH (90 deg F wet-bulb globe temperature WBGT).

This book was released on 1999 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Program Manager, U.S. Army Aircrew Integrated Systems (PM-ACIS) requested that the U.S. Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory (USAARL), Fort Rucker, Alabama, assess the physiological and psychological effects of heat stress exposure for aviators wearing encumbered chemical defense level-4 mission oriented protective posture (MOPP4) ensembles. This project was conducted under a joint agreement between USAARL and the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine (USARIEM), Natick, Massachusetts. The methodology for assessing heat stress in an environmentally controlled helicopter simulator was established in previous studies conducted at USAARL (Reardon et al., 1996; Reardon et al., 1997; Reardon et al., 1998).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological testing was conducted with six Army aviators before and after flights in a UH-1H helicopter while wearing standard flight suits, US or UK aircrew chemical defense ensembles. Additional testing on non-flight days was conducted to provide a baseline for evaluation. Tests consisted of encode/decode problems, math problems, logical reasoning problems, target detection problems, and a four-choice reaction time test. Tests were scored for number of attempted, percent correct, reaction time of correct and incorrect responses. Self reports of mood were also taken and scored. The results of the study indicated that various levels of ensemble-imposed heat stress caused orderly changes in psychological function and extended the results of laboratory investigations to the aviation setting. In addition, reaction time data showed changes in the pilot's ability to deal with 'error' situations as a function of imposed heat stress and that self reports of mood were unreliable indicators of severe heat stress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is known that heat stress leads to reduced +Gz-tolerance in tactical aircrew. The first phase of an effort to determine the relationship between physiologic heat stress and flight performance was conducted using the new NAWCADPAX flight simulator installed in an environmental chamber. Performance scores declined after subjects were exposed to the hot alert conditions relative to control, though the difference was not statistically significant. Correlation analysis indicated a marginal relationship between the change in performance and rectal and mean skin temperatures (r = 0.59 and 0.55, respectively). The experimental design did not account for the increased generation of metabolic heat associated with straining against high G forces, though it did include radiant heat loads. The next phase will include physical work in the cockpit to account for this additional factor.
