Book excerpt: This report describes a new computer-aided design and evaluation model to simulate an aircraft maintenance worker called Crew Chief. The model will interface to two or three CAD systems common in the aerospace industry. Crew Chief will generate a 3-D mobility, accessibility, strength, and visual characteristics. The aircraft designer, working at the computerized drawing board, can superimpose the Crew Chief on the design and simulate the performance of maintenance activities. With this tool, the designer can verify that a system is maintainable before even a mockup is constructed. Because of its general purpose capability, the Crew Chief model will have application to nonaircraft design evaluations. Keywords: Anthropometry; Maintenance; Graphics; Biomechanics.

Download or read book Computer Applications in Ergonomics Occupational Safety and Health written by Markku Mattila and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1992 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a valuable reference on the available computer-based tools and techniques that can be used for improving the comfort of working conditions, as well as the safety and health of the working population worldwide. The variety and depth of presented computer applications illustrate the increasing usefulness of information technology in removing the ever present incompatibilities between people and their working environments. Especially in the areas of data collection and analysis, man-machine systems interface, workplace and equipment design, industrial safety and injury control, the computer-based systems can improve the scope and quality of services provided to the industry at large. The transfer of knowledge between ergonomists, occupational safety and health professionals, and management and workers is critical to ensure full realization of the many benefits expected from implementation of ergonomics and safety principles in the workplace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupational Ergonomics: Principles of Work Design focuses on the fundamentals in ergonomics design and evaluation. Divided into two parts, Part I covers the background for the discipline and profession of ergonomics and offers an international perspective on ergonomics. Part II describes the foundations of ergonomics knowledge, including fundamentals of ergonomics, fundamentals of work analysis, and cognitive issues. The authors discuss ergonomics of system design and outline the principles of certification in professional ergonomics. Methods for evaluation of physical workload due to posture (RULA and OWAS), as well as computer-aided human models and other software-based tools for ergonomic analysis and design are reviewed.

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined an existing industrial workstation at an automobile assembly plant using computer aided ergonomics and digital human models. The purpose of this evaluation was the development of a methodology useful for evaluating workstations to identify potential design issues that could result in musculoskeletal injury in a real work environment. An ergonomic risk assessment was conducted on a lifting task while being performed both manually and using an assist device. JACK digital human modeling and ergonomics software were used to conduct a computer-based ergonomic analysis. Four analysis tools in JACK (static strength analysis, rapid upper limb assessment, metabolic energy expenditure analysis and NIOSH lift analysis) were used to evaluate the potential injury risk of the current method of task performance and there is any difference between using and not using the assist device. Muscle activity was measured by electromyography (EMG) to identify physiological indicators of fatigue. Also, Borg¡ ̄s Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale was administered to obtain psychophysical data. Results of this study revealed that there were relative stresses on the trunk and arm areas when the task was performed manually. The results also suggest although using the assist device decreased injury risk potentially, use of the assist device had an adverse impact on the productivity of the assembly line. Based on the findings of this study, the methodology used appears to be an appropriate ergonomic analysis tool for assessing and predicting potential risks associated with the design of industrial workstations. Furthermore this methodology can be extended to designing and redesigning industrial workstations.
