Designing to Combat Fatigue: Observations on design methods adopted to combat fatigue and its effects on the economics of civil transport aircraft

Abstract

THE increasingly competitive nature of both the operational and manufacturing sides of the aviation business has had the effect of making the designer more conscious of the economic characteristics which he is building into his aircraft, and these have now become a major design consideration.
