ACCELERATION ? Col (Dr) Pierre Erasmus ACCELERATION Introduction Aircrew can be insulated from most environmental stresses of flight such as heat, hypoxia and noise. However this is not true for acceleration. As a/c become more agile the worse there acceleration stresses. There is unfortunately no anti-gravity device. G-suits are not anti-gravity devices but just alleviates the effects. With new aircraft operating in excess of 8G the human is operating at the limit of his performance. Of particular concern is the potential of for G-induced loss of consciousness or G-LOC ACCELERATION Forces due to acceleration are vector quantities having proportion both of magnitude and direction. Acceleration occur whenever there is a change in velocity, direction of motion at uniform velocity. Forward acceleration causes a backwards acting inertial force. Centripetal force will be sensed as the resultant centrifugal force. The effect on the body will depend markedly upon its orientation relative to the force vector. ACCELERATION EFFECT OF ACCELERATION DEPENDS ON: Magnitude: Measured in units of G, this being the ratio of the applied force to the standard acceleration of gravity g, or 9,81m/s2. Thus, 5G is equal to an acceleration of 49,05m/s2 and the weight of the body is increased fivefold. Direction: The vector direction of acceleration forces is defined according to a three-coordinate system based upon the long axis of the body. Duration: Classified into: a. Impact acceleration acting for a second or less. b. Sustained acceleration acting for a second or more.
