Abstract Fatigue-induced impairments in neurobehavioral performance capacity may compromise safety in 24-hr operational environments, and developing reliable and valid methods of identifying work/rest patterns that produce fatigue and undermine performance is important. One approach is the use of biomathematical modeling as a means of predicting, preventing, and mitigating fatigue-induced safety risks.
