Effects, hazards and managment of sustained acceleration, weightlessness, vibration and impact acceleration (with specific reference to aviation, spaceflight, and automotive safety); effects, hazards, and management of exposure to low and high barometric pressure (with specific reference to human problems at altitude, and to underwater engineering). 542 Human Engineering and Systems Development 43 Human Engineering (formerly SD501) : 44 Ergonomics (formerly. SD502) Human function in systems; man’s capacities and limitations as a component of a complex system; assignment of operations to man and machine; equipment design in relation to human capacity; training programmes, procedures, and devices; task description and analysis; analytic methods for test and evaluation in human engineering. Man-machine systems; man-machine interface; presentation of information; design of displays and controls; workplace layout, human factors in design. Significance of ergonomics; man-machine-environment complex; physiology of work, fatigue, and boredom; environmental factors in industry (noise, vibration, vision, illumination, heat, cold, toxic chemicals, radiation); industrial, and automotive safety.
