The Effect of Operator Performance Variables on Airborne Electronic Equipment Reliability.
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to investigate the frequency and impact of human-initiated and human-related equipment failures on operational reliability; the factors responsible for the occurrence of these failures; the design characteristics and equipment components to which these failures are related; methods of combining human performance data with reliability predictive techniques. The results of the study suggest that it is possible to predict the frequency of human-related failures on the basis of number and type of components in the system and the functions to be performed by operators/technicians.
