    Five major sources of environmental stress affect pilots. In aviation, a source of stress that comes from the environment is known as an environmental stressor. [1] Stress is defined as a situation, variable, or circumstance that interrupts the normal functioning of an individual and, most of the time, causes a threat. [2]

  4. Physiology of decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_decompression

    Biological stress is a concept developed by Hans Selye, and can be defined as a "general pathophysiological response, where similar symptoms and signs develop in response to a variety of agents and conditions". [59] This phenomenon is also known as the general adaptation syndrome. Decompression is a stressor, and decompression stress is the ...

  5. Ambient pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_pressure

    Ambient pressure may in other circumstances be measured in pounds per square inch (psi) or in standard atmospheres (atm). The ambient pressure at sea level is approximately one atmosphere, which is equal to 1.01325 bars (14.6959 psi), which is close enough for bar and atm to be used interchangeably in many applications.

  6. Stress (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_(mechanics)

    This type of stress may be called (simple) normal stress or uniaxial stress; specifically, (uniaxial, simple, etc.) tensile stress. [13] If the load is compression on the bar, rather than stretching it, the analysis is the same except that the force F and the stress σ {\displaystyle \sigma } change sign, and the stress is called compressive ...
