ADVANCES IN PHYSICAL ERGONOMICS & HUMAN FACTORS...

This book reports on the state of the art in physical ergonomics and is concerned with the
design of products  process  services  and work systems to assure their productive  safe  and
satisfying use by people. With focus on the human body's responses to physical and
physiological work demands  repetitive strain injuries from repetition  vibration  force  and
posture are the most common types of issues examined  along with their design implications. The
book explores a wide range of topics in physical ergonomics  which includes the consequences of
repetitive motion  materials handling  workplace safety  and usability in the use of portable
devices  design  working postures  and the work environment. Mastering physical ergonomics and
safety engineering concepts is fundamental to the creation of products and systems that people
are able to use  as well as the avoidance of stresses and minimization of the risk of
accidents. Based on the AHFE 2016 International Conference on Physical Ergonomics & Human
Factors  held on July 27-31  2016 in Walt Disney World®  Florida  USA  the book provides
readers with a comprehensive view of the current challenges in Physical Ergonomics  which are a
critical aspect in the design of any human-centered technological system  and factors
influencing human performance.
