Abstract
Ergonomic studies play a particularly important role in the design of naval vessels. Key specializations, including physical, perceptual and organizational ergonomics, apply to navy ship spaces. The contributions of various disciplines to the definition of naval vessels are analyzed and tested in an ergonomic perspective to continuously seek solutions that enable increased efficiency while maintaining safety and comfort. Ergonomics is a science in a continuing evolution. It analyzes social changes and the new expectations that are generated, to meet them at both civilian and military level.
