Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Development of a model to predict the effects of worker and task factors on foot placements in manual material handling tasks

Notes: Sumario: This study proposes a method for parametensing the steps (foot placements) associated with manual material handüng tasks. The inñuence of task conditions and subject anthropometry on the foot placements of the most frequentiy obsewed stepping pattem during a laboratory study is discussed. For prospective postural analyses conducted using digital human models, murate prediction of the foot placements is critical to realistic postural analyses and improved biomechanical job evaluations.
