A Human Factors Evaluation of the MH-60G PAVE HAWK Helicopter Cockpit

Abstract

This report documents several recommendations to improve functionality, decrease workload and ultimately improve overall mission performance through a human factors evaluation of the MF{-60G cockpit. Utilizing the Tools for Automated Knowledge Engineering process and software tools, the NH-60G cockpit was evaluated for possible human factors related deficiencies and/or areas for possible improvement. The result of this evaluation provide guidance for current cockpit modifications. Tools for Automated Knowledge Engineering is a software tool that employs an advanced knowledge elicitation technique called concept mapping. It's computer supported analysis tools manage and engineer the information collected in concept maps. TAKE provides engineers, designers, and manages with an ability to quickly collect, analyz and display information in efficient data representations.
