Diver Performance and Human Engineering Tests Salvage Equipment Evaluation Program U. S. N. /Makai Range AEGIR Habitat.

Abstract

One of the primary stated goals of this research program was to obtain quantitative performance data of diver capabilities in performing simulated salvage tasks under the operational conditions of a deep saturation dive, and to compare such data with those obtained under relatively ideal shallow-water conditions. Based on further evaluation of these data, recommendations would be made for improved utilization and design of underwater salvage tools. These goals were only achieved to a limited extent.
