Aerospace series - Anthropometric dimensioning of aircraft seats

This document describes the application of anthropometric data for the dimensioning of aircraft passenger seats. The focus is on the use of statistical parameters of anthropometrical measurements as given in CEN ISO/TR 7250 2 and similar sources. Even if methods described in this document might be applicable for feasibility and safety issues the scope of this document is design for comfort.
The aim of this document is to give advice to designers to include methods of human-centred design into the design of aircraft seats.

Luft- und Raumfahrt - Anthropometrische Dimensionierung von Flugzeugsitzen

Série aérospatiale - Dimensionnement anthropométrique des sièges passagers d’avion

Aeronavtika - Antropometrično dimenzioniranje letalskih sedežev

Ta dokument opisuje uporabo antropometričnih podatkov za dimenzioniranje
letalskih sedežev. Poudarek je na uporabi statističnih parametrov antropometričnih meritev, podanih v standardu CEN ISO/TR 7250-2 in podobnih virih. Tudi če bi bile metode, opisane v tem dokumentu, uporabne za vprašanja izvedljivosti in varnosti, se področje uporabe tega dokumenta navezuje na udobje.
Namen tega dokumenta je svetovanje oblikovalcem, da v zasnovo letalskih sedežev vključijo metode projektiranja, ki upoštevajo udobje potnika.
