Course Objectives: | The aim of the course is to give to the students the main consepts of ergonomics. The quantification of man-machine systems. Detailed study of work systems (Man, machine, environment, relationship, aim, input and output). The students prepared to work in any complicated man-machine systems and to find creative solutions and apply them in real problems. |
Course Content: | The importance of ergonomics in industrial engineering. Main elements of industrial and service systems. Productivity and efficiency in different man-machine system and their dimensions. Physical, psychological and sociological work environment. Deterministic, probabilistic and fuzzy modelling of complicated man-machine systems. Anthropometric design of man-machine system. Presentation of an important consept of ergonomics by different student groups Presentation of term project. |
