Peysakhovich, V. (author), Ledegang, W. (author), Houben, M. (author), Groen, E. (author)Eye movements analysis has great potential for understanding operator behaviour in many safety-critical domains, including aviation. In addition to traditional eye-tracking measures on pilots’ visual behavior, it seems promising to incorporate machine learning approaches to classify pilots’ visual scanning patterns. However, given the multitude...conference paper 2022

Steinman, Y. (author), Groen, E. (author), Frings-Dresen, M.H.W. (author)The purpose of the present study was to determine how hypoxia effects awareness of environment (AoE) in helicopter pilots operating at high altitude. Eight helicopter crews flew two operational flights in a flight simulator while breathing gas mixtures of 20.9% (equivalent to 0 m altitude) and 11.4% (equivalent to 4572 m or 15,000 ft altitude)...article 2021

Ledegang, W.D. (author), Groen, E.L. (author)BACKGROUND: Adequate instrument scanning is considered an important countermeasure against spatial disorientation (SD). Remarkably, literature on the relation between SD and pilots’ visual scanning is scarce. The objective of this simulator study was to investigate the influence of SD on pilots’ visual scanning and flight performance. METHODS:...article 2018

(author)Objective: This study tested whether simulator-based training of pilot responses to unexpected or novel events can be improved by including unpredictability and variability in training scenarios. Background: Current regulations allow for highly predictable and invariable training, which may not be sufficient to prepare pilots for unexpected or...article 2018

Korteling, J.E. (author), Helsdingen, A.S. (author), Sluimer, R.R. (author)Aim: The objective of this study was to collect evidence of transfer-of-training to professional performance provided by two stand-alone PC-based flight games. Background: These realistic games, Falcon 4.0 (F-16 specific) and Microsoft Flight Simulator (civil aircraft), are designed for entertainment purposes, lacking any purposeful or explicit...article 2017

Ledegang, W.D. (author), Groen, E.L. (author)We investigated the performance of 12 airline pilots in recovering from an asymmetrical stall in a flight simulator featuring an extended aerodynamic model of a transport-category aircraft, and a centrifuge-based motion platform capable of generating enhanced buffet motion and g-cueing. All pilots had difficulties in applying the correct...article 2015

(author)The objective of the European research project SUPRA (Simulation of Upset Recovery in Aviation) is to develop technologies that eventually contribute to a reduction of risk of Loss of control - in flight (LOC-I) accidents, today's major cause of fatal accidents in commercial aviation. To this end the project developed novel concepts to improve...conference paper 2012

Nooij, S.A.E. (author), Groen, E.L. (author)Introduction: Spatial disorientation (SD) is still a contributing factor in many aviation accidents, stressing the need for adequate SD training scenarios. In this article we focused on the post-roll effect (the sensation of rolling back after a roll maneuver, such as an entry of a coordinated turn) and investigated the effect of roll stimuli on...article 2011

(author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)Following a previous study in the Simona simulator on perception of coherent visual and inertial cues in a flight simulator, an experiment is performed in the Desdemona simulator to investigate the influence of the frequency of visual and inertial stimuli on the limits of the perceived coherence zone. The coherence zone is defined as the range...conference paper 2010

Wentink, M. (author), Correia Grácio, B.J. (author), Bles, W. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)In the real world in which we move around, inertial and visual motion are usually equal; what you see is what you feel. In a simulator, however, this is usually not the case. On the contrary, due to the relatively small motion space of even the largest simulators, the inertial motion cues must be filtered and scaled down considerably. Typically,...conference paper 2009
