摘要: This study consisted of the development a factor model and sitting interface pressure related assessment discomfort, based on an extensive literature review. The identified force applied sitter's body as one main factors causing seating discomfort. proposed that discomfort mainly arises from feelings in lumbar buttock areas, local either depends upon or, is reflected by, pressure. A pilot experiment was conducted to explore utility by change postural angles. Eleven subjects attended 40 min session. independent variables were seat angle seat-to-backrest angle. measuring device used record between subject prototype surface. general comfort scale administered after each measurement.
