As one of the most representative assistive technology devices, wheelchair has many peculiar aspects in its daily usage. Therefore, cannot be thought only as a mobility device, and ergonomic investigation should include also aesthetics symbolic aspects. This study was aimed at investigating influence gender on users' perceptions about significance their own wheelchair. The sample comprised ten manual users, being five men women. Subjects were asked to rate seven-point scale each pair...
This study aimed to assess the student-furniture interface from anthropometric parameters of sitting posture. The sample was composed 887 students two public schools in State Parana-Brazil, which attended children 7 17 years age. data collection used measures position, a questionnaire containing human body diagram for indication discomfort areas and photographic records verify postural ergonomic inadequacies classroom. following variables were measured: popliteal height, sacro-popliteal...
In recent decades, the market of consumer products has changed from production-oriented point view to a more market-focused, i.e. aiming attend consumers' expectations. Today, consumers turn their attention not only logical and rational aspects product, but increasingly symbolic emotional factors have gained an important role in buying decision. Some methods already been used design meaning products, such as Kansei Engineering with reported results literature. This study had goal investigate...

Introduction. Wheelchair configuration is an important factor influencing the ergonomics of user–device interface and, from a biomechanical point view, small changes in chair setup may have positive influence on demand upper limbs during manual propulsion. This study aimed to investigate position rear wheels’ axle and use accessories activity limb muscles wheelchair Methods. Electromyography signals biceps, triceps, anterior deltoids pectoralis major were collected for 11 able-bodied...
Studies demonstrate that there is a lack of effective ergonomic principles for adopting neutral posture during the execution dental procedures. ISO 11.226:2000 Standard, Corr. 1:2006 has been thoroughly evaluated and adapted to way dentists work by European Society Dental Ergonomics (ESDE). However, after 15 years, no studies showed strong evidence effectiveness in reducing prevalence awkward applying its parameters within scope practice were found. The aim this study was verify proposed...
The aging population is a growing reality in many societies and leading to significant changes public health policies the strengthening of economic sector these countries. This scenario intensified discussions about ageing its determinants within several areas thus substantially reflected on design projective aspects certain objects. It due cognitive physical constraints this group, which imply need for differentiated products that are designed properly favor psychological, emotional,...
[Purpose] This study was aimed at investigating the influence of seat height and body posture on activity superior trapezius longissimus muscles. [Subjects Methods] Twenty two healthy subjects were instructed to perform a total eight different postures, varying according three main factors: (low high seat); trunk inclination (upright leaning forward 45°); hips in abduction adduction. Electromyography collected bilaterally, average values obtained compared across all postures. [Results] The...
Products intended specifically for children began to be developed in the second half of seventeenth century, driven by a change adult's view role society. Over time it was noted that were more vulnerable risk products could offer, and there rules seek promote greater protection those users. This decisive how industry would follow with their developments. Among materials most used toys other children's are wood, polymers (polyethylene, polypropylene abs, EVA, nylon) fibers (cotton, polyester,...
