Abstract:Human engineering (known in some countries as human factors indesign or ergonomics) is a discipline by which data on humancapabilities and limitations are taken into account during theengineering design and development process. NATO AC/243(Panel8/RSG.14) completed a study of analysis techniques used for humanengineering. The RSG collected information on the of kinownhuman engineering analysis techniques, compiled descriptions ofthirty-one existing techniques, reviewed them to identify theneed for new and improved techiques, reviewed the current stateof standardization of such techniques, and compiled examples offunctional decompositions of typical manned systems. The twovolumes of this report review the state-of-the-art of humanengineering analysis and its relationship to systems engineering.
