Performance Curves

The standards for vibration in MIL-STD-1472B, Human Engineering Design Criteria for Systems, Equipment, and Facilities, were compared to data from the literature and were found to be inadequate. Families of isodecrement performance curves for tracking performance with various combinations of acceleration and frequency were derived for vertical (z-axis) vibrations. A similar family of isodecrement performance curves was derived for percentage decreases in number-reading accuracy for vertical (z-axis) vibrations. These findings were used to make recommendations for changes to MIL-STD-1472B for predicting and identifying excessive work station environments.

The Relationship

The human element pervades all company processes, from proposal, design, manufacturing, quality control and product support. Cost effective processes can be best achieved when the human element is totally integrated with technology. Traditional human engineering design methodologies applied to company processes optimizes the relationship of people that comprise the organization with the technology that is the foundation of the organization. Process ownership is essential for the achievement of the goals of quality. This ownership occurs by applying macroergonomics precepts by integration of the personnel system with the technological factors to achieve product delivery to a satisfied customer within the external environment of market forces. The application of human engineering design principles will be discussed followed by the quality focus of the LMTAS company processes. This paper will review LMTAS quality goals to show the elements that form the foundation of The Fighter Enterprise to make it the contractor of choice for tactical fighter aircraft.
