A Simulator Evaluation of Pilot Response to Low Frequency Aircraft Vibration with Audio Feedback.
Abstract
An aircraft simulator facility employing a two-axis air combat manuvering simulation with whole body virbational mode capability was used to investigate pilot response to vibration and the performance enhancement technique of audio feedback cuing. The reliability of pilot response to a tracking task was measured in both the nonvibrational and vibrational mode with audio feedback cuing as a primary stimulus in testing. In general, performance scores in all modes of testing were improved using aural tracking techniques with a significant reversal of the adverse vibration stress duration function above expected values. Detailed conclusions and recommendations are presented. (Author)
