What is being bought

Published requirement description

In-flight physiological data is largely derived from 1960s-1980s reports which are no longer representative of modern aircraft, operators or understanding of complex human physiology in this environment. This PhD will provide an accurate and up to date evidence base from which to assess UK Defence Standards and to support design of future aircraft breathing systems.
