Studies on physiological effects due to gravitation and acceleration have become a hot topic of research since the last century. Scientists and engineers have been putting their best efforts to excavate more about the physiological changes that occur in jet aircraft pilots and astronauts. This study focuses on a few prominent and recent observations related to the alterations of physiological functioning due to gravitational and acceleration forces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
