Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Protection from hypothermia and drowning are the primary requirements for an immersion suit system during ship, rig, or helicopter abandonment in the North Atlantic. In order to achieve this, the suit must be dry and comfortable. The problems involved in manufacturing such a suit are discussed and the fact is that there is still not a suit in existence that fulfills all the criteria. |
