Noise Characteristics of Surgical Space Suits

Orthopedics, 2009
Several studies indicate that the noise generated by performing orthopedic surgery has the potential to cause hearing loss. Noise-induced hearing loss was found in 50% of the orthopedic surgeons studied using audiometric testing, with a greater incidence associated with years of practice.

Making space suits

Proceedings of the 2014 ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2014
Successfully enabling a human to live and work in the vacuum of space requires a broad array of technologies, from textiles to hard goods to electronics. Space Suit design is predicated on two things: 1) Where you are going, and 2) What you are doing.

EVA suit 2000: A joint European/Russian space suit design

Acta Astronautica, 1995
A feasibility study in 1992 showed the benefits of a common European Russian space suit development, EVA Suit 2000, replacing the Russian space suit Orlan-DMA and the planned European Hermes EVA space suit at the turn of the century. This EVA Suit 2000 is a joint development initiated by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Russian Space Agency (RKA)

Comparative Space Suit Boot Test

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2002
<div class="htmlview paragraph">In applications that require space-suited crewmembers to traverse rough terrain, boot fit and mobility are of critical importance to the crewmember's overall performance capabilities. Current extravehicular activity (EVA) boot designs were developed for micro-gravity applications, and as such, incorporate only ...

Suited for Space Life

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1967
in the monitoring station reflected my image throughout all three centrifuge runs. I was unaware that the personnel in data acquisition, located in a nearby building, were recording all communications on electromagnetic tape. In the centrifuge, I diligently concentrated on performing a psychomotor test.
