Computer-Assisted Ergonomic Analysis of Working Postures Causing Strain

Abstract: Ergonomics, which is also known as Human Engineering or Human Factors Engineering, is a discipline allowing a working design in accordance with individuals’ anthropometric (bodily) size, physical strength, and personal characteristics by considering the relationships between individuals and other actors in the system. Specifically, one of the main principles of ergonomics is that individuals should be in harmony with and adaptable to the environment.

“…Manual activities increase the risk of injury in cases where the workstations are not well-designed [1]. Their relative risk assessment is a necessity from the point of view of laws and international standards [2]. Therefore, ergonomic analysis is an essential practice in every workplace to avoid workrelated musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD) and work-related musculoskeletal injuries (WMSI), which refer to painful conditions affecting the muscles, tendons, and nerves.…”
