  1. 1. Product development of hand-held scooping utensil for the pharmaceutical industry

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Ergonomi

    Författare :Josefin Kruse; [2024]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are one of the most common groups of work-related illnesses. At PET Dispensing, AstraZeneca Södertälje, several MSDs had been linked to a specific scooping utensil made of stainless steel. LÄS MER

  3. 2. A New Approach for Positioning Human Body Models Utilising the 3D-Graphics Program Blender

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Jesper Eiderbäck; Felix Jahnke; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Human Body Model; HBM; positioning; THUMS; Blender; Radial basis function.; Mänsklig kroppsmodel; HBM; positionering; THUMS; Blender; Radiell Basfunktion;

    Sammanfattning : A finite element human body model (FE HBM) is a detailed virtual model of the human body that, for example, is used for simulating traffic accidents. A problem with HBMs is that there is no simple way to position the HBMs in non-standard positions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Wrist Angle Estimation Using Two Wearable Inertial Measurement Units

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Arvin Razavi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :IMU wrist angle estimation; Wrist absolute angle; IMU-based human motion capture; orientation filter; Complementary filter; Kalman filter; IMU handledsvinkeluppskattning; handleds absolutvinkel; IMU-baserad mänsklig rörelsefångst; orienteringsfilter; komplementfilter; Kalman-filter;

    Sammanfattning : Hand-intensive work is closely related to the prevalence of upper body and hand/wrist work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in office work, manufacturing, service industries, as well as the healthcare industry. Some risk factors include vibrations, forceful exertions, heavy manual handling, repetitive motions, and prolonged nonneutral wrist postures. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Improving Objectivity and Reliability of Observational Risk Assessment Tools by using Technical Instruments

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Cephas Charsmar-Etor; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Direct measurement instruments; Observational instruments; Body segments and postures; Inertial measurement unit; Wearable sensors;

    Sammanfattning : Ergonomic assessments to determine risks of work-related musculoskeletal disorders as well as to compare designs of work-tasks and workstations, are imperative for high sustainability and productivity in any given industry. Hence, assessment tools that can objectively and reliably capture postures, joint angles and muscle activities play very important role in properly determining risks relating to work and various tasks.

  7. 5. Evaluation of the RAMP Tool’s New Hand Model -Reliability, Usability and Face Validity

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Dina Burghol; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Hand-Intensive Work; RAMP Tool; Observation-based Risk Assessment tools; reliability; Usability; Face Validity.;

    Sammanfattning : Hand-intensive work significantly correlates with the increased risks of developing Distal upper-extremity (DUE) Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendinitis. Many studies have investigated the physical risk factors and their contribution to the occurrence of the DUE WMSDs. LÄS MER
