Abstract
Habitability standards have been a useful quality assurance tool for the decision maker in order to address human performance onboard military platforms. A point of interest in these standards is the need to address motion sickness (both in the civilian and the military arena). The most prevalent and widely-used standard used is ISO 2631-4:2001. The part for kinetosis (motion sickness) * “provides guidance on the effects of very low frequency accelerations (0.1 Hz to 0.5 Hz) experienced as vertical forces…” A method for calculating a motion sickness dose value based on this same frequency range is provided in ISO 2631-1:1997, annex D.
