Preventing Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders in Manufacturing by Digital Human Modeling.

摘要: This research concerns the workplace design methodology, involving digital human models, that prevents work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). We propose an approach that, in conjunction with one of classic WMSD risk assessment methods, allows to simplify simulations a three-dimensional environment. Two real-life workstations from manufacturing industry were modelled 3D Studio Max environment by means Anthropos ErgoMax system. A number show for examined cases, boundary mannequins' approaches can be replaced using 50th percentile population individual, minimal impact on risk. Although, finding might not suitable all situations, it should considered, especially where compromise solutions are being sought due other criteria.
