This is a practical guide that will help others incorporate facilitation in their tracing programs and in the analysis of operational incidents. It is based on the extensive field studies conducted by the editors and their invited contributors. The intended readership includes managers and instruc..

Fatigue and sleep definitions as well as strategies for the measurement and assessment of fatigue are in this updated edition, and aviation performance, mood, and safety problems associated with sleep restriction and circadian disruptions in operational settings are highlighted. In addition there is..

This overview of fatigue includes fatigue definitions, the measurement / assessment of fatigue, and the performance, mood and safety problems associated with fatigue in the operational setting. The physiological bases of fatigue are discussed, so the reader understands that fatigue is a physiologica..

Provides a comprehensive treatment of how stress and fatigue relate to aviation. This work clarifies and distinguishes the concepts of stress and fatigue as they apply to flight, and expounds sufficient theory to provide a basis for the consideration and amelioration of stress effects in aviation...

While stress and fatigue are often dealt with in other books on aviation performance and human factors, these realities of human vulnerability are now increasingly seen as central to the effective conduct of flight operations. Flight Stress provides a comprehensive treatment and a better understandi..

Those involved in an aviation accident face a dilemma between not supplying information for preventing future accidents and supplying such information which may result in their criminal prosecution. Aviation safety is largely built upon the trust placed by aviation professionals in the process of ac..
