posted on 05.03.2018, 10:08 authored by Julia G. ScrivenThis thesis has examined Main Battle Tank (MBT) crew activities and workload. The aims
were to provide a package of workload and fatigue indicators for use during field exercises;
to document the 'in tank' activities of MBT crew; to provide a task analysis which includes
an indication of task demands, and to draw general conclusions concerning the practical
assessment of human workload. It is in two volumes. The first volume, which is unclassified,
gives the background, presents reviews of relevant literature on task analysis and workload
and gives an overview of the thesis. It then documents the studies and experiments which
were carried out in order to refine the methodology, and to select a battery of measures of
workload and fatigue which were suitable for use on military exercises. [Continues.]
