Fatigue has been a common symptom of warfighters who were participated in the early morning hours, late night hours, and sustained operations. Continuous operations may disrupt circadian rhythm, resulting in impaired combat capability. It is important to enhance alertness and sleep quality of warfighters for maintaining combat capability. A number of anti-fatigue strategies are available including medications. Here in, the pharmacological countermeasures of combat fatigue have reviewed, and the direction of research in the pharmacological countermeasures against combat fatigue are proposed.

War field differs from conventional military education and training environments. Warfighter may confront frequently unexpected physical and psychological stimulation. Cumulative psychological stress and physical fatigue can be causes of mood distortion, declined alertness, and decreased combat capability in warfighters. Countermeasures of combat stress and fatigue is very important for keeping combat capability and saving of life. Here in, the countermeasures of combat stress and fatigue have reviewed, and limitation and the direction of research and development of countermeasures of combat stress and fatigue are proposed.

Measuring energy burn during intensive combat sport has been a challenging concerns for a long time. In the present article, the energy consumption during combat sports is measured by use of wearable GoBe2 equipped with nanotechnology measuring devices. In this regard, 12 professional combat athletes were asked to wear GoBe2 devices during different sessions of intensive combat exercises. The curves provided by GoBe2 nano-sensor devices are further collected and analyzed for different combat durations. On the other hand, energy consumption in these athlete is calculated using other validated methods to evaluate reliability of GoBe2 wearable devices. Based on the results obtained from these experiments a multi-parameter mathematical model is presented for estimation of combat calorie consumptions. The results show that nanotechnology in these type of sensors could help in estimation of calorie consumption during combat. Moreover, the reliability of using wearable GoBe2 sensors are satisfactory except for some specific conditions. The mathematical model provides a satisfactory results based on athlete physical condition and also duration of the combat with about 8% error margin in the results.

Fighter pilot's ability to maintain both mental and physical capabilities in highly stressful situations is important for aviation safety as well as mission performance because pilot may confront frequently unexpected physical and psychological stimulation. Cumulative psychological stress and physical fatigue can be causes of mood distortion, declined alertness, and can lead to reduction of combat capability. We have investigated bio-signals and performance tests to monitor stress and fatigue levels, and developed a system to evaluate aviation mission suitability before flight. This study elucidated that stress and fatigue level of pilot can be monitored by psychomotor cognitive test(PCT) and heart rate variability(HRV), and that the best of reference for aviation mission suitability was confidential interval obtained from cumulative data of individuals. The system to evaluate aviation mission suitability was constructed with measuring part with PCT and HRV and control part with DB and algorithm.

The gear drive of a combat aircraft engine is responsible for power transmission to the different accessories necessary for the engine's operation. Incorrect power transmission can occur due to the presence of failure modes in the gears like bending fatigue, pitting, adhesive wear, scuffing, abrasive wear and polished wear etc. Fault diagnosis of the gear drive is necessary to get an early indication of failure of the gears. The present research is to develop an algorithm using different vibration signal processing techniques on industrial vibration acquisition systems to establish gear fault diagnosis architecture. The signal processing techniques have been used to extract various feature vectors in the development of the fault diagnosis architecture. An open-source dataset of other gear fault conditions is used to validate the developed architecture. The results is a basis for development of artificial intelligence based expert systems for gear fault diagnosis of a combat aircraft engine.

함정 전투체계에는 레이더 장비, 수중센서 장비, 함포 및 미사일 제어용 무장통제 장비들과 같이 체계를 운용하기 위해 필요한 여러 장비들과 이를 통제하기 위한 다기능콘솔이 구성되어 있다. 다기능 콘솔에는 장비들의 상태정보 전시 및 장비들을 통제하기 위한 HCI 기반의 소프트웨어가 탑재되어 있고, 운용자는 탑재된 소프트웨어를 활용하여 함정 전투체계를 운용한다. 하지만 함정 전투체계를 장시간 운용함에 있어 다기능콘솔 전시기의 구조로 인한 신체적 불편함, 다양하고 복잡한 HCI 구성으로 인한 운용자의 피로도 증가 등 문제점들이 발생하고 있다. 이러한 문제점들은 함정 전투체계 운용성을 저하시키는 중요한 요인이 된다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 함정 전투체계 개발자들을 대상으로 한 설문조사를 바탕으로 신체적 불편함을 줄일 수 있는 다기능콘솔 전시기 구조 설계와 운용자의 피로도를 줄일 수 있는 직관적인 HCI 설계 방안을 제안한다. 이로 인해, 향후 함정 전투체계 운용자들에게 편의성을 제공하여 기존 함정 전투체계보다 운용성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 장점을 가진다.

Psychological stress and physical fatigue, such as anxiety, fear, sleep disturbance, etc., caused by exposure to the war, can lead to post-traumatic stress syndrome(PTSD) or war syndrome. The military has also prepared for drug use to minimize war syndrome and preserve combat strength. However, efforts to prevent war syndrome are still lacking. This study was conducted to identify biomarkers that can track psychophysiological changes. Psychophysiological changes associated with PTSD can be divided into four main categories. The four categories are behavioral changes, changes in brain cognition, neuroimmunological changes, and changes in innate immunity. This study suggest that biomarker profile can be made by the distance moved and the anxiety-like behavior in the open field for behavior category, brain BDNF levels in the brain cognition category, serum corticosterone in the neuroimmunology category, and inflammatory cytokine levels in the innate immunity category.

This paper proposes a 3-screen multi-function console development method using ergonomic design approach. Ergonomically designed console has the advantage of decreasing operator fatigue and increasing concentration by providing better readability, operability and convenience. For this, thirty subjects participated in the experiment for 3-screen multi-function console design. Ergonomic standards of console design were used to establish experiment design and to eliminate incompatible results with ergonomic standards. Subjects evaluated the nine predefined placements of displays and asked to place the display and controllers in order to use comfortably. As a results, total 18 design criteria including displays and controllers placement were determined.

본 연구는 행군 시 발보장구 착용이 하지 근육 활동에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 과회내족과 정상족을 선정하여 트레드밀에서 4.5km/h의 속도로 걷게 하였고 이때 근전도기를 이용하여 하지근육의 근육신호를 수집, 분석하였다. 수집한 데이터를 평균적분근전도와 스펙트럼 분석을 통해 근활성도와 피로도를 알아보았고 SPSS 12.0을 이용하여 통계분석하였다. 실험 결과는 과회내족이 정상족보다 행군 시 근 활성이 큰 것으로 나타났고, 보장구 착용 시 근 활성과 피로도가 줄어드는 경향을 나타냈다. 특히 전경골근과 장비골근의 근육활성 감소와 피로도 감소가 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 결과적으로 과회내족은 장시간 행군 시 발보장구 착용이 피로도 감소에 효과적이며 이는 잠재적인 하지 근골격계 상해 예방에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
