Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Ergonomics applications of a mechanical model of the human operator in power hand tool operation

Notes: Applications of a new model for predicting power threaded-fastener-driving tool operator response and capacity to react against impulsive torque reaction forces are explored for use in tool selection and ergonomic workplace design. The model is based on a mechanical analog of the human operator, with parameters dependent on work location (horizontal and vertical distances); work orientation (horizontal and vertical); and tool shape (in-line, pistol grip, and right angle); and is stratified by genderRelated records: En: Journal of occupational and environmental hygiene. - Cincinnati, Ohio : American Industrial Hygiene Association : American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. - Vol. 2, nº 2, January 2005 ; p. 111-119Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Sistema hombre-máquina Biomecánica Fisiología Modelos estadísticos Herramientas manuales Diseño del puesto de trabajo Otros autores: Radwin, Robert G.
