Information System for Ergonomic Assessment of a Perspective Maneuverable Aircraft Cockpit

The article is devoted to the ergonomic assessment of the crew workplaces of a promising maneuverable aircraft using the information system developed for these purposes. The assessment is based on a variety of human-machine-environment ergonomic indicators. The article provides description of the main groups of ergonomic indicators, discusses methods for the indicators assessment. The article discusses the use of an information system consisting of a database containing information on the ergonomic parameters of the developed workplaces of the crew of a promising maneuverable aircraft, and software for processing this information. The structure of the database is considered, methods of obtaining an integral ergonomic estimate are described. The analytical hierarchy process method is used as a method for obtaining an integral ergonomic assessment of the crew's workplaces; the article provides a general scheme of the method. The paper provides a general description of approaches to the design of the logical and physical structure of various database parts.
