.. py:function:: power_human(duration, dataset = 'Healthy Men')

   Finds the power output that a human can sustain for a given duration.
   Data was fit for durations in the range of 6 seconds to 60,000 seconds.
   Fits are modeled at: AeroSandbox/studies/HumanPower
   Data Source: Bicycling Science by D. Wilson, 2004. Figure 2.4.
       Wilson is aggregating many data sources here.
       The raw data pulls from a variety of sources:
           * NASA SP-3006, 1964
           * U.K. amateur trials and time-trials records (Whitt, F.R. 1971 "A note on the estimation of the energy expenditure of sporting cyclists." Ergonomics 14)
           * Wilsons' own analyses
   Weight estimates for tests subjects are unfortunately not given.
   :param duration: Time to sustain power output [seconds]
   :param dataset: Dataset to pull from. A string that is one of the following:
       "Healthy Men",
       "First-Class Athletes",
       "World-Class Athletes",
   :return: Sustainable power output for the specified duration [W]
