INDEX OF HISTORICAL RESEARCH REPORTS AND DOCUMENTS

IN THE PROTECTION AND SURVIVAL LABORATORY AT THE 

CIVIL AEROSPACE MEDICAL INSTITUTE

In the 1948 article, “Some biological factors in the 

design of civil aircraft,”

1

 published in the Journal of 

Aviation Medicine, the authors noted research being 

conducted at the Civil Aviation Medical Research 

Laboratories (CAMRL). This laboratory designation was 

somewhat unofficial since the research was conducted 

under the Aviation Medical Branch. Eventually, this 

branch was renamed the Civil Aeromedical Research 

Institute and later the Civil Aeromedical Institute. 

Today, it is known as the Civil Aerospace Medical 

Institute (CAMI). Since the authors’ initial reference to 

CAMRL, numerous studies have been conducted in the 

name of protecting human life. Many of these 

historically valuable documents, drafts, notes, 

presentations, and photos from years of research still 

exist today at the Protection and Survival Research 

Laboratory branch of the Aerospace Medical Research 

Division of CAMI. 

Recently, a large quantity of this information was 

digitized for preservation and accessibility for future 

generations of scientists and engineers to use as 

reference in endeavors to continue protecting human 

life during civilian air operations. A few of these topics 

include aircraft accidents, breathing devices, child 

restraint systems, crash testing, and aircraft evacuation. 

This bibliography is a first within CAMI’s 

Protection and Survival Laboratory. The primary 

objective is to provide the scientific and engineering 

community interested in aviation safety the opportunity 

to learn from past research. This bibliography is 

arranged alphabetically by subject headings, then 

alphabetically by authors, and finally by date. If 

available, a report or memorandum number is listed in 

the citation. The authors recognize that this is not a 

comprehensive list of reports and papers written and 

compiled by researchers in the Protection and Survival 

Laboratory, therefore, not all may be included in the 

index. As more documents are digitized, updated 

editions of this report will become available. It is 

important to recognize that these documents are not upto-date with current technologies and should be 

considered only as historical sources of information. 

Some of these documents can only be obtained through 

the Freedom of Information Act. A request form and 

instructions are included in the Appendix.
