Transport Airplane Cabin Interiors

Transport airplane cabin interiors crashworthiness handbook .

The two principal objectives of this book were (1) to identify promising materials technologies, design issues (both overall and for individual components), and fire performance parameters (both full scale and for individual components) that, if properly optimized, would lead to improved fire and smoke resistance of materials and components used in aircraft interiors; and (2) to identify long-range research directions that hold the most promise for producing predictive modeling capability, new advanced materials, and the required product development to achieve totally fire-resistant interiors in future aircrafts. The emphasis of the study is on long-term innovation leading to impacts on fire worthiness of aircraft interiors ten to twenty years hence.

Describes the high art and technical bravura behind creating some of the smallest living spaces in the world. With photographs of aircraft interiors from leading carriers, this book fully details the variety, as well as the creative breadth, behind them.

What should every airline and manufacturer know about comfort?What can we learn from studies in the scientific literature?What do most passengers know about comfort and how can we translate that into interior design?Where can I find the latest knowledge and research useful for designing aircraft seats?Although the answers to these questions are ava

Descripción del editor: "The dream of flying has preoccupied man since time immemorial. The fascination of discovering distant destinations and overcoming distances quickly resulted in the demand to optimize traveling times from the aspect of comfort. Meanwhile, airline companies offer their passengers a wealth of on-board possibilities: Releaxing sleep in a bed above the clouds, internet connection, or bars. Functionality only turns into a finished contemporary interior as a result of the designed shapes, materials and colours. Starting with the choice of material to the development of an artificial starry heaven inside the cabin, which counteracts against jetlag, everything is taken into consideration while designing the cabin, making the time the passenger spends travling, more pleasant. This book will show the most impressive and innovative 40 examples around Aircraft Interiors in big and small, private and business jets."

This book describes the Conference on Fire and Smoke-Resistant Materials held at the National Academy of Sciences on November 8-10, 1994. The purpose of this conference was to identify trends in aircraft fire safety and promising research directions for the Federal Aviation Administration's program in smoke and fire resistant materials. This proceedings contains 15 papers presented by distinguished speakers and summaries of the workshop sessions concerning toxicity issues, fire performance parameters, drivers for materials development, and new materials technology.
