Abstract

Both, an analysis of the variation of the electromyographic signal with respect to the acceleration endured by flying personnel and an ergonomic evaluation of pilot activity, have been achieved. The authors show then the inadequacy of the muscular response to the high Gz with rapid on set and its functional incompatibility to provide simultaneously a correct bearning contraction and a good mobility of neck. Consequently, the authors propose an instruction of flying personnel about these risks and they determine a specific muscular training.
