This paper provides a systematic review of recent developments in 3D body modelling with relevance to ergonomics and apparel applications. Five major approaches are examined, including scanning-based, parametric, implicit, generative, and modelling based on large language models (LLMS). and summarises their principles, limitations, and representative achievements. Applications in garment customisation, virtual try-on, and comfort evaluation are discussed, highlighting the potential of digital human models to reduce physical prototyping, improve size accuracy, and enhance user experience. Key challenges remain, including realistic modelling of dynamic human-garment coupling, soft tissue deformation, and data diversity. Based on this, this paper reviews the research progress and proposes future research directions, providing a systematic reference for researchers and practitioners in ergonomics, human factors, apparel engineering, and digital human modelling.","PeriodicalId":50503,"journal":{"name":"Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"1-28"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147864736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sixteen healthy young women completed nine randomised within-subject conditions (polyurethane, open-cell foams or silicone × no pad, arch-pad 1 or arch-pad 2) during level walking in standardised 35-mm heel shoes. Plantar pressure (contact area, peak pressure and pressure-time integral) was measured with an in-shoe pressure system, and comfort was rated using a footwear comfort scale. Arch-pad conditions increased medial-midfoot contact area and reduced pressure-time integral in selected forefoot and heel regions, while increasing pressure-time integral at the medial midfoot and peak pressure at toes 2-5. Material effects were smaller and more region-specific, and material-by-arch interactions were observed for pressure-time integral at the lateral forefoot and medial heel. These acute findings may inform early-stage insole prototyping but require validation under longer-duration, task-representative occupational conditions.","PeriodicalId":50503,"journal":{"name":"Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147845377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measurement of possible risks is usually done using subjective ergonomic reports or involving trained observers who follow methods such as RULA and REBA. This paper introduces the use of IMUs for gathering motion data from colonoscopy practitioners and generating RULA and REBA reports automatically. Eight endoscopists performed two simulated functional colonoscopy procedures while wearing an inertial-magnetic motion tracker suit, the MTw Awinda by Xsens. The procedure was recorded while IMUs tracking data was captured and processed by the Xsens MotionCloud for automatic REBA and RULA report generation. Physicians also answered a NASA-TLX questionnaire to subjectively measure comfort and workload. Automatic REBA and RULA reports show higher ergonomic risk for novices, while subjective questionnaire results mismatch. The experiment indicates the usability of the system for automatic RULA and REBA generation.","PeriodicalId":50503,"journal":{"name":"Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147845425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines whether non-driving-related tasks (NDRTs), especially chatting with AI, can improve drivers' cognitive state (cognitive load, sleepiness) and hazard perception during 15-minute supervision in daytime, suburban and low-traffic environments. The experiment compared a baseline condition with three NDRTs: listening to music, chatting with human, and chatting with AI. Results showed that all NDRTs increased cognitive load and reduced sleepiness. For novices, human chatting imposed excessive cognitive load and failed to improve hazard perception. Both music listening and AI chatting enhanced it, with AI chatting being more effective in reducing sleepiness. Eye-tracking data confirmed larger pupil sizes and more balanced fixations during AI chatting. In summary, NDRTs alleviated passive fatigue during supervision, and AI chatting improved novices' sleepiness and hazard perception with a moderate cognitive burden, emerging as the relatively optimal solution.","PeriodicalId":50503,"journal":{"name":"Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"1-21"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147823136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study proposes and validates a low-cost, human-centered framework that integrates machine learning with usability evaluation to address this problem. The framework consisted of two stages: first, applying clustering algorithms to anthropometric data to establish a data-driven sizing model; and second, developing a smartphone-based prototype to validate the framework's real-world applicability. A comprehensive evaluation with 20 university students and a supplementary validation with 6 active Air Force Academy students demonstrated the framework's success, achieving an average System Usability Scale (SUS) score of 83 (82.5) and a total Questionnaire for User Interaction Satisfaction (QUIS) score of 209.55 (187.33). The data model was also validated, with key anthropometric variables effectively stratifying complex body types (p < .001). The primary contribution of this study is a generalisable framework for developing user-accepted personalised fitting systems in resource-constrained settings.","PeriodicalId":50503,"journal":{"name":"Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147823149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
