title: [Biomechanical interpretation of loss of consciousness (GLOC) by fighter pilots under rapid onset rate (ROR) of +Gz acceleration].
abstract: ROR +Gz acceleration withstood by fighter pilots generates GLOC, which is assumed to be related to cranial hypertension. Results derived from simple mathematical models seem to confirm this hypothesis.
