Preliminary investigation shows that the negative G restraint configurations are viable design approaches. The restraint systems will be fabricated and incorporated into MPES. Human subjects will be used for evaluation of the negative G restraint. Areas of concern which will be studied are: crewman comfort; ease of donning/adjusting the restraint, and restraint release for man/seat separation. For measuring effectiveness of the restraint under the negative G environment, the seat/man configuration will be suspended upside-down (simulating a -1G environment) and measurements and observations will be noted. The NADC centrifuge also looms as a possible test bed for testing the negative G restraint under a variety of negative G profiles. (Author)
