Synopsis

Fatigue and sleep definitions as well as strategies for the measurement and assessment of fatigue are in this updated edition, and aviation performance, mood, and safety problems associated with sleep restriction and circadian disruptions in operational settings are highlighted. In addition there is an essential overview of Fatigue Risk Management Systems. Readers have a 'toolbox' from which they can choose the best solutions for the fatigue-related problems that exist in their unique operational context.
