Understanding the trade-offs between protection, performance and integrated survivability / Linda L.M. Bossi [and five others].: D68-10/063-2018E-PDF
"Heavy load weights cost in terms of soldier performance. Few studies, however, have specifically examined the contribution of other Clothing and Individual Equipment (CIE) mass properties (e.g., bulk, stiffness). Canada is employing the standardized LEAP combat mobility course to understand the contributions of these CIE mass properties to soldier mobility decrements. Follow-on simulator studies that replicate soldier movement speeds and movement patterns under the same loads have enabled us to gather empirical data of soldier vulnerability to enemy fire under select scenarios. Results will inform the trade-space of protection versus performance and integrated survivability"--Introduction.
