The module is developed from user interviews and literature studies, as well as mathematical methods for anthropometric diversity consideration. The module has functionality to create both single manikins and manikin families, where it is possible to combine or analyse different population datasets simultaneously. The developed module and its interface have been evaluated via focus group interviews and usability tests by DHM tool users. Results from the studies show that the developed module and its interface has relevant functionality, fits well into industrial work processes, and is easy to use. The study also identifies possibilities to further increase usability.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115482926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically, parameter identification relied on estimates of endurance time (ET) for sustained static contractions. However, this is not feasible for more complex tasks, such as intermittent contractions, in which ET is not achieved or reported due to long task durations. Here we present numerical methods, which use multiple time-varying measures of fatigue development to find best-fit fatigue (F) and recovery (R) parameter values for one fatigue model. While we used the three-compartment controller model (3CC), the approach using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm could be applied to other fatigue models. This method determines best-fit parameter solutions as those resulting in a minimum least squares difference between measured and modelled data. We present a summary of this approach with two extreme examples with multiple on/off cycle repetitions from the literature to demonstrate determination of the two model parameters, F and R, for each dataset. Thus, the method works with repetitive contractions, utilising multiple data points over time, not just a single endurance time point, as in previous studies.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124992764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work used a computational model to obtain quantitative measures of shoulder moment, glenohumeral joint contact force and rotator cuff muscle demand based on recorded postures and manual force estimates during the performance of ten different occupational tasks. Outcomes of simulation analyses demonstrated that advanced model outputs can enhance resolution of shoulder-specific exposures currently unavailable with standard ergonomics assessment techniques. A novel composite injury risk score effectively discriminated between shoulder exposure levels. It includes multiple complementary parameters into a single exposure risk assessment tool. The major contribution of the work is to establish the feasibility and utility of incorporating a computational model into ergonomic assessments across occupational tasks.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128368603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although this provides an obstacle for the worker, these objects can be used to externally support their body by means of lower body bracing. The purpose of this study was to determine when participants would brace, and to quantify the amount of force used for bracing. At four task hand locations, participants performed six exertions, with all combinations of two forces and three directions, and participants chose whether they braced or not. Participants were twice as likely to brace when the task had a far reach. Average brace forces were 117 N for upwards and pulling exertions, and 67 N for downward exertions. These data can be used to guide the prediction of external forces during work simulation and proactive ergonomics assessments.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121698906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The author of the present analysis addresses some important aspects of the human-in-the-loop problem for safety-critical missions and situations, in which trust can be viewed as an essential part of the human-capacity-factor (HCF). This factor, as has been recently suggested, should be evaluated vs. mental workload (MWL), when there is a need to assure a successful and safe outcome of a particular human effort, such as, e.g., an aerospace mission or an extraordinary situation. The double exponential probability distribution function (DEPDF) for the random HCF is revisited. It is shown particularly that the entropy of this distribution, when applied to the trustee (a human, a technology, a methodology or a concept), can be viewed as an appropriate quantitative characteristic of the propensity of a decision maker to an under-trust or an over-trust judgment and, as a consequence of that, to the likelihood of making a mistake or an erroneous decision.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133552536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in the kinematics of human motion based on Euler's angles, the rotational transformation order around three orthogonal coordinate axes is arbitrary, meaning that the coordinate transformation at a shoulder joint is not unique. Because RMIs are calculated from the coordinate transformation matrix, the RMIs of an upper limb may be influenced by this arbitrariness. This study examined the effects of the rotation order of the coordinate transformation at a shoulder joint on the manipulability evaluation of an upper limb. The results indicate that RMIs depend on rotation order. Thus, a modified method that eliminates the influence of rotation order was subsequently proposed. Experimental results indicate that RMIs calculated via this proposed modified method are rotation order independent, verifying that it contributes to manipulability evaluation in DHMs.","PeriodicalId":417746,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Human Factors Modelling and Simulation","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125813069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Australia has a high prevalence of MSDs for healthcare workers, such as nurses. Two digital human models (DHMs) Siemens JACK and imk EMA were used to investigate if hospital bed pushing, a simple task and hazard that is commonly associated with LBP, can be validly simulated and ergonomically assessed in a virtual environment. While JACK and EMA have implemented a range of common physical work assessment methods, the simulation of a dynamic task such as bed pushing remains a challenge. This research highlights limitations in the DHMs studied, and the need for further research in this area.

The model is simulated in LabVIEW12.0 under the excitation of generated random road profiles, classified as per ISO 8608:2016. The model was validated for a two-wheeler named 'HERO SPLENDOR PRO' on three types of road profiles i.e. good, average and poor at a vehicle speed of 20 km/h. Assessment of discomfort in simulation model, according to ISO 2631-1:1997, was done for 85 kg rider on good road profile at 40 km/h vehicle speed and the ride was found uncomfortable.
