Spatial disorientation (SD) is a problem that pilots often encounter during a flight. One reason for this problem is that among the three types of SD, there is no validated method to detect the Type I (unrecognized) SD.
In this pursuit, initially we reviewed the problems and the evaluation methods of associated with SD. Subsequently, we discussed the advantages and disadvantages of the subjective questionnaire evaluation method and the behavior evaluation method.
On the basis of these analyses, we proposed a method to detect the unrecognized SD that improved the assessment of SD to a significant extent. We developed a new direction to study the unrecognized SD based on the subjective report and the center of pressure (CoP).
The proposed evaluation method can assist the pilots to understand the feelings and physical changes, when exposed to unrecognized SD.
We hope that this evaluation method can provide a strong support in developing a countermeasure against the unrecognized SD and fundamentally solve the severe flight accidents arising due to them.
空间定向障碍(SD)是飞行员在飞行中经常遇到的问题。造成这一问题的原因之一是,在三种类型的 SD 中,没有经过验证的方法来检测 I 型(未识别)SD。
在这一研究中,我们首先回顾了与 SD 相关的问题和评估方法。随后,我们讨论了主观问卷评估方法和行为评估方法的优缺点。
在此分析的基础上,我们提出了一种检测未识别 SD 的方法,极大地提高了对 SD 的评估水平。我们基于主观报告和中心压力(CoP)提出了一种研究未识别 SD 的新方向。
所提出的评估方法可以帮助飞行员了解在暴露于未识别的 SD 时的感觉和身体变化。
我们希望这种评估方法能够为制定对抗未识别 SD 的对策提供有力支持,并从根本上解决因 SD 导致的严重飞行事故。
