ANTHROPOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS IN HIGH ALTITUDE FLIGHT SYSTEMS,

Abstract

The report reflects research on various phases of the dimensional requirements of the pressure suited man in the man-machine system. The spatial requirements for the man in a cockpit or capsule and an ejection and escape mechanisms or wearing clothing as protection against hostile environmental factors, such as heat, cold, vacuum, high g, and radiation, present separate problems for the design engineer that can be helped effectively with the applicable anthropological data.
