THE DESIGN AND EVALUATION OF MAINTAINABLE PACKAGING METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENTFootnote*

* This research was supported by the U.S. Navy under contract N 61-339-330, monitored by the Flight; Trainers' Division, Human Engineering Department of the U.S. Naval Training Device Center, Port Washington, N.Y. The opinions and conclusions in this report arc those of the authors and are not to be construed as reflecting the views or endorsement of the Department of the Navy. The authors would like to acknowledge the help of George Herlt who acted as a special engineering design consultant for equipment fabrication. Both he and Fred Scheihing were concerned with the difficult task of translating the packaging philosophies into actual hardware. Additional assistance was rendered by Mr. Karl Goosman and Mrs. Margaret McKendry.
