THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF A HELICOPTER. PILOT’S POSITION: MODELLING AND CONTROL
Keywords:
helicopter, design, ergonomics, human factor, human virtual model, control, Maya softwareAbstract
To this day, most means of transport, either objects or persons, are designed to be handled by a person on board. So the design of a means of transport must be an ergonomic one, taking into account the human factor (the person who will handle the machine). The ergonomic design of a pilot's workspace is about ensuring the state of comfort in the movements he must perform so that he can handle the means of transport safely. In the aviation sector, this rigor of design is more important because even the slightest human error can be fatal. Over time, it was realized the importance of creating the virtual human model in design in order to discover the problems of ergonomic nature. The virtual human model made in the Maya Autodesk software will be analyzed from the point of view of movements to see if the model complies with the restrictions of the human body and if it can perform the specific movements of a pilot in the helicopter cabin.
