Simulation for pointing manipulation performance of pilot

The design and layout of human-machine interface through static reach and visual zone in the cockpit cannot ensure the pilot-s safe operation capability in the face of overload and vibration. In order for the optimization of layout of human-machine interface, muscle-skeleton model of LifeMOD platform was built. Pilot motion capture data under normal condition was used to train muscle of pilot model and build pilot operation model. Pilot Kometic simulation model with muscle units was built based on pilot operation model so that anti-kinetics simulation and analysis can be done. By adding ±Z and +X direction acceleration and Z and Y direction vibration to the pilot-seat model and the affect of the target-pointing operation due to multi-acceleration and vibration in cockpit was obtained. The results suggest that emergency operation equipment can be positioned in central control panel in which the acceleration and vibration has least impact to ensure that pilot can operate timely and accurately in emergency and eventually to promote flight safety. Simulation for pointing manipulation performance of pilot in unusual circumstances can guide the optimization layout of cockpit human-machine interface and improve plane emergency operation safety.
