Contents:
Enhancing Walking Stability of Foot Deformities Patients by 3D Printed Ankle Foot Orthosis -- Analyzing the Important Factors Causing Fatigue in Industrial Workers Using Fuzzy MCDM Technique -- Priortizing the TQM Enablers in HCEs for improved performance:An AHP approach -- Development of bottom-wear size chart for Indian male youth -- Occupational health hazard of workers engaged in food processing unit of Assam -- Ergonomic evaluation of a car interior: A case example on Shelby Cobra -- Ergonomic Risk Assessment and Postural Analysis of Indian Agricultural Workers -- Ergonomics in the Kitchen of Working Women of MIG Families (A study of Aligarh City) -- Physical Effects on an assembly of modeled teeth and mandible using Finite Element Analysis -- A Case for Re-examining Office Furniture Norms in India -- Advergames are more persuasive amongst different online advertisements.
In: Springer Nature eBookSummary: This highly informative and carefully presented book focuses on the fields of ergonomics/human factors and discusses the future of the community vis-à-vis health problems, productivity, aging, etc. Ergonomic intercession must be seen in light of its effect on productivity because ergonomic solutions will improve productivity as the reduction of environmental stressors, awkward postures and efforts lead to a reduction in task execution time. The book provides promising evidence that the field of ergonomics continues to thrive and develop deeper insights into how work environments, products and systems can be developed to meet needs, demands and limitations of humans and how they can support productivity improvements. Some of the themes covered are anthropometry and workplace design, biomechanics and modelling in ergonomics, cognitive and environmental ergonomics, ergonomic intervention and productivity, ergonomics in transport, mining, agriculture and forestry, health systems, work physiology and sports ergonomics, etc. This book is beneficial to academicians, policymakers and the industry alike.
