Formalization of the «standard» mechanic-driver in the system of assessment of the basic preparation level on driving combat vehicle on the simulator

Abstract

The scientific task of the article is devoted to the formalization actions of the reference mechanic-driver of a combat vehicle for its implementation in a system that evaluates the level of basic training from driving on the simulator based on an analysis of existing models of the human operator of vehicles. The essence of the study is to describe the operating conditions of the mechanic-driver of a combat vehicle, to determine and analyze the factors that affect them, to analyze existing approaches to building a model of a vehicle operator and to select a base model based on it to model the reaction of the model on a single signal. To solve this problem, methods of the theory of automatic control and simulation were used. As a result of the study, the structure of the mathematical model of the mechanic-driver of the combat vehicle was refined based on the analysis of existing models of the vehicle operator using typical links of the theory of automatic control, its basic parameters were determined based on the study of the response to a single impulse that simulates the vehicle entering a turn (test maneuver) A group of models has been specified for their further use in the system for evaluating the actions of the mechanic-driver of a wheeled and tracked combat vehicle. The conceptual structure of the system is determined, which evaluates the level of training of the mechanic-driver for the driving simulator. The direction of further research is to determine the values of the model parameters in accordance with the type of the combat vehicle, the level of psychophysiological properties of the mechanic-driver and the influence of functioning conditions on them. The approach proposed in the article to the formation of a system that evaluates the level of basic training from driving on a simulator based on the model of the mechanic-driver of the combat vehicle can be used to increase the objectivity of certification of the level of training, justify a rational set of practical exercises, the sequence and frequency of performing control techniques in different situations, determination of the volume of training, forecasting the result of training.
