Human engineering deals with problems stemming from the interactions of man and his environment. This includes effects in both directions; effects of man upon environment, effects of environment upon man. Contemporary aircraft and missiles, as well as futuristic but imminent space vehicles, are complex systems incorporating the human component. The task of a human engineering facility in the context of aircraft, missile, or space vehicle design is twofold: (1) to conduct investigations on the specific events constituting the human-environment interactional situations pertinent to such systems; (2) to assist in the design of specific hardware items involving human engineering problems. In order that both of these functions may realize optimal success, detailed specifications of the events and operations of the human engineer's conceptual framework are necessary. (Author)
