Abstract:
Ergonomics is an important validation content in vehicle product development. The traditional evaluation method of ergonomics adopts physical mockups or prototypes, which is very costly, and is inconvenient to modify, and usually cause prolonged development cycle-time. In this paper, in conjunction with enterprise’s requirements, an ergonomic validation equipment system, which has adjustable main parts, was developed. Firstly, requirements were analyzed, and target model cars ranges were determined, and ergonomic contents which can be validated using this equipment were clarified. The packaging characteristic of the passenger car was analyzed, and the reference fiducial marks system used for packaging design were determined. Based on the requirement of occupant accommodation, anthropometries of target population were statistically analyzed. By using revised SAE J1517 H-Point curves models, the drivers’ seating space was designed, as well as the requirement of the driver seat track travel. Based on the analysis of packaging data of passenger cars, and considering the possible changes, controls such as steering wheel, pedals, sticks, etc., were packaged.

Abstract:
Lockheed Martin Tactical Aircraft Systems (LMTAS) has launched a Workforce Vitality program with the objective to spawn an environment where people believe they not only are empowered, but also have an obligation to speak up whenever they see something that needs to be changed or improved. Banners or slogans are not part of this program. It is a commitment to see a new way of doing business. Soon after the program was introduced, the highest percentage of suggestions was to have the work areas improved to meet ergonomic criteria. Once the employees and management saw the potential for ergonomics improvement to their work area, this requirement became equal with quality and productivity as an objective. This paper will review the LMTAS Workforce Vitality Program and draw parallels with ergonomic improvements. Such a comparison will show that the objectives of the Workforce Vitality program are complemented with ergonomics.

Abstract:
As the time passes, the habits and the people's demands move. More and more, the people are complaining for better work conditions and life. (Dull and Weerdmeester, 1995). For that, its work conditions more and more need adaptations, seeking the health, the safety, the comfort, among other, that are the practical objectives of the ergonomics'. With the diffusion of the use of computers, the work positions with terminals of computers are turned frequent in industries and offices demanding like this a larger attention to the new works that it creates. (Iida, 1992). With this frequent use of the computer, it is demanded that the body adopts a static posture during the work day, with the fixed attention in the screen and the hands on the keyboard. Thus, the work in computer terminals can provoke consequences for the worker's health from the visual fatigue, muscular pains in the neck and shoulders, and pains in the tendons of the fingers, due to the ergonomic inadequacy and the demands of the task (Iida, 1992). Therefore, this article says respect to an ergonomic analysis in a work position, accomplished as requirement of the discipline of Ergonomic Engineering of the Work having been chosen the Section of General Registration (SRG) of the University Hospital (HU). It can intend the elaboration of a notebook of responsibilities of ergonomic recommendations that it will allow to establish the several specifications about the future situation, that says respect to the environmental factors and organization.

Abstract:
Public transportation is one of the most important services in supporting the smooth running of community activities in cities where people most commonly use a bus to reach a destination. Consequently, it requires a clear travel route so passengers find it easy to go on a trip. Display is a device for providing information. However, the existing display receives some complaints where more than 60% of passenger experience difficulty in reading what is shown, taking more time for them to understand the information. It is evidence that the device is not effective and efficient to use. Thus, development of a new display is crucial. The purpose of this study was to design an innovative display that is more ergonomic in displaying bus route information. Survey was conducted to identify user requirement. Axiomatic design method was applied to determine the design parameters of the display by mapping process from customer attribute and functional requirement on the basis of the ergonomic principles. Statistical analysis was conducted to test hypothesis. The result of this study showed that the display developed is valid to meet customer criteria at 5% of significant level, covering the criteria of being informative (0.144), comfortable (0.063), digitalized (0.070), and easy to access (0.378). Thus, it is more effective and efficient for passengers to gain any information needed.

Abstract:
Axiomatic Design was applied in an undergraduate student-led project which culminated in the creation of an agile ergonomic monitor stand, a solution designed to optimise the productivity and working conditions of the office environment. The customer domain was determined using a Mendelow’s Stakeholder Analysis followed by contextual inquiries and lead user interviews. These customer needs were organised into different levels via Maslow’s Hierarchy and redefined in terms of functional requirements. The functional requirements were decomposed and classified using the Kano Customer Satisfaction and Long Tail Models, and ultimately organised into a functional requirement tree. Design constraints were considered and listed, and the customer and functional domains were compared using a House of Quality. This allowed potential design paths to be devised with respect to the chosen functional requirements. The path involving the smart ergonomic stand was chosen from a number of potential products assessed against the functional requirements by listing the potential design parameters in a morphologicalmatrix. Concepts were designed by creating combinations of these design parameters, with their suitability being judged using the Independence Axiom. The physical form of the solution was inspired using biological sources. The final details of the design were chosen using the Information Axiom to determine their suitability in practical implementation allowing the final concept to be produced in a 3D CAD model.

Abstract:
Existem trabalhos que causam mais desgastes físicos e psíquicos, alguns fatores como a falta de interação social no trabalho entre colegas e chefes, jornadas de trabalhos longas sem interrupções, mobílias inadequadas aos trabalhadores e exigência cognitiva também aumentam a chance de danos à saúde. Durante a jornada de trabalho ocorrem modificações e adaptações no corpo dos trabalhadores devido à carga de trabalho física, cognitiva e organizacional. A carga física causa a fadiga de órgãos e músculos, a cognitiva causa a fadiga psicológica, a organizacional, em virtude ao processo de trabalho, causa estresse. Desta forma, a ergonomia irá abordar durante a análise da atividade estes três fatores, que podem ser risco de adoecimento, quando inadequados e em sobrecarga. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo realizar uma análise ergonômica, por meio de entrevistas aos coordenadores dos cursos da área da saúde e propor melhorias. Como metodologia foi realizada uma AET, com coletas de informações a respeito da tarefa e atividade, para verificação da presença de dores, bem como o local e a intensidade, e foi utilizado o questionário bipolar ISO 20646, para complementar foi utilizada a ferramenta de avaliação Ergonomic Workplace Analysis (EWA). Como resultados foi possível verificar, pelo questionário NASA, que existe exigência mental e temporal, porém são características da atividade desempenhada e existem períodos de maior demanda cognitiva. Foi possível elencar os aspectos físicos, que necessitam de melhorias para adaptar o posto de trabalho ao trabalhador; além de compreender e propor melhorias que visem enquadrar na NR 17, enfatizando o conforto, segurança e eficácia da atividade prestada.Palavras-chave: Engenharia Humana. Fisioterapia. Saúde do Trabalhador.AbstractThere are jobs that cause more physical and psychological wear, factors such as lack of social interaction at work between colleagues and bosses, long hours of uninterrupted work, inadequate furniture and cognitive requirements also increase the chance of health damage. During the working day there are changes and adaptations in the workers’ body due to the physical, cognitive and organizational workload. The physical burden causes organs and muscles’ fatigue, just as the cognitive causes psychological fatigue, the organizational because due to the work process, causes stress. Therefore, ergonomics will approach during the activity analysis thesethree factors that can be risk of becoming ill, when inadequate and in excess. This research had as objective to perform an ergonomic analysis through interviews to the health area coordinators and propose improvements. As a methodology, an AET was carried out, with data collection about the task and activity, to verify the presence of pain, as well as the location and intensity, using the ISO 20646 bipolar questionnaire, to complement the evaluation tool Ergonomic Workplace Analysis (EWA). As results it was possible to verify through the NASA questionnaire that there is a mental and temporal requirement, but they are characteristics of the activity performed and there are periods of greater cognitive demand. It was possible to list the physical aspects that need improvement to adapt the work station to the worker, besides understanding and proposing improvements that aim to fit in the NR 17, emphasizing the comfort, safety and effectiveness of the activity provided.Keywords: Human Engineering.

Abstract:
Requirements of a Volvo car are stored in a requirements management system at Volvo Car Group (VCG). VCG recently implemented a new requirements management system, a system called SystemWeaver. Many different types of requirements are stored in the SystemWeaver software, where the requirements can only be described in text and pictures. However, some requirements are geometry-based, describing some type of shape or measurement in space that the car should fulfil. Geometry-based requirements are stored in Teamcenter and have two components, the requirement text and requirement geometry in the form of CAD-models. The models are used to illustrate the requirement in space. This master thesis examines the possibilities of connecting text-based requirements in SystemWeaver to requirement geometries. The technical aspects are studied as well as the organizational mechanisms of creating and changing a geometry-based requirement. To find a working solution, research relating to the issue gave input to the project. Furthermore, interviews were conducted at different departments at VCG to get insight in the working tasks of requirement management at the company. The project resulted in a concept of a new process, describing the actions of geometry-based requirement management and how requirement geometries should be connected to SystemWeaver. The new concept outlined the logical steps that are required to work with SystemWeaver and geometry-based requirements. The work has laid a foundation on which future studies can be conducted to further streamline management of geometry-based requirements at VCG.

Abstract:
Manutenção, para as organizações, possui a função estratégica de garantir a confiabilidade buscada com a disponibilidade projetada para os processos. Enquanto um serviço, a conformidade da execução dos serviços de manutenção é o resultado dos recursos envolvidos, da capacidade técnica, de logística, dos meios, do planejamento, do controle das condições de trabalho e do ambiente. Mantenabilidade é a adequada execução destes serviços, que acontece pela necessária adoção de requisitos para atender a normas, legislação e melhores praticas, particularmente associados ao ambiente em que as atividades e tarefas de manutenção serão desenvolvidas. Este estudo contempla um conjunto de quatro artigos que têm por finalidade identificar os requisitos de mantenabilidade a serem atendidos na execução dos serviços de manutenção. Para tanto, a partir de um estudo sistemático, identifica na literatura os principais requisitos, estruturando-os em áreas, e aplica pesquisa junto a especialistas de manutenção para classificá-los quanto à importância e aplicabilidade. Na sequência, agrupa estes requisitos em criticidade, estabelece um ranqueamento quanto à sua observação e debate a ocorrência na literatura e o operado nas organizações, bem como a possível defasagem existente entre o operado e o concebido em discussões acadêmicas. Como resultado, além de apresentar os principais requisitos de mantenabilidade na execução dos serviços de manutenção, caracteriza o impacto da adoção dos requisitos de mantenabilidade nas organizações e conclui que a mantenabilidade gerenciada é responsável pela conformidade da execução dos serviços e pelos resultados organizacionais buscados. O estudo aponta para a necessidade de construir uma sistemática capaz de diagnosticar o nível de observação dos requisitos de mantenabilidade em uma organização e de introduzir melhorias nos processos e execução de serviços de manutenção existentes.
Maintenance, for the organizations, comprises the strategic function of assuring the sought reliability by the planned availability for the processes. As a service, the conformity in the performance of maintenance services results from the involved resources, technical capacity, logistics, means, planning, control of work conditions and environment. Maintainability is the adequate performance of these services, which occur by the adoption of requirements that observe norms, legislation, and best practices, particularly connected to the environment where the maintenance activities and tasks will be developed. This study consists of a block of four articles, which aim to verify the necessary maintainability requirements to be attended in the performance of maintenance services. For the accomplishment, it takes a systematic study to identify in the literature the major requirements, organizing them by sections, and applies a research to maintenance experts in order to categorize these requirements on levels of importance and applicability. Subsequently, it groups these requirements on emergency levels, establishes a ranking board based on their observation, and discusses their occurrences in the literature towards what is performed in the organizations, as well as the possibly existent hiatus between the operated procedures and the concepts raised from academic discussions. As a result, besides presenting the major maintainability requirements in the performance of maintenance services, it characterizes the impact of the adoption of maintainability requirements by the organizations and concludes that the managed maintainability is responsible for the conformity in the performance of services and for the sought organizational results. The study reveals the necessity of structuring a systematics able to diagnose the level of attendance of maintainability requirements by an organization and to attach improvements to the processes and performance of existing maintenance services.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the issues surrounding the collection and dissemination of customer ergonomics requirements in the automotive industry. The aim of the research is to develop a Toolset of methods, known as the Lifestyle Scenario Toolset, for gathering customer requirements in overseas markets, and for presenting the information collected to design teams, taking a user-centred design approach. The Toolset was developed and evaluated with the co-operation of employees from a major UK automotive company. Four studies were conducted, the first comprised a series of interviews to establish the needs of both the data gatherers and data users for a Toolset of methods to collect and communicate overseas customer information. The data gatherers were drawn from the company's Market Researchers, Ergonomists and people responsible for the company's overseas operations. The data users were the design team responsible for the development of the company's next generation 4X4 vehicle. Results showed that the data collection tools which formed part I of the Toolset should be quick to use, require no ergonomics expertise to implement and be cost effective to use. The interviews with data users identified the need for tools which could communicate customer ergonomics requirements to them in a way which fitted in with their current working practices. In addition the tools needed to communicate information in language which was familiar to the design team, and be visually based where possible. The second study explored the development of suitable data collection tools for inclusion in the Lifestyle Scenario Toolset. Building on the needs identified in the first study together with information from the current literature a number of data collection tools were developed for inclusion in part I of the Lifestyle Scenario Toolset. These tools were a questionnaire, driving diary and photographs, focus group, ergonomics audit and background information tool. The tools were designed to collect a range of different data types, e.g. qualitative, quantitative, pictorial and customer verbatims, to provide a rich picture of users and their activities. The tools were used in a field trial to collect data from overseas customers about their ergonomics requirements and the tasks they carried out using their vehicle, in the context of their lifestyle. The third study focused on the development of a set of tools to communicate the data collected in part 1 of the Toolset, to the design team who would use it in their work. The data communication tools were developed to provide information to design teams at a number of levels, enabling them to use the data at an appropriate level for their needs. High level summaries of each of the tools were developed and scenarios presented on storyboards were used to integrate information from all of the data collection tools to provide detailed information about customers' ergonomics requirements and lifestyle. The data communication tools also used a variety of data types and presentation mediums, such as pictures, graphs and customer quotes to increase the richness of the data presented. The fourth study involved the evaluation of the suitability of the Toolset for collecting and communicating overseas customer ergonomics requirements. The data gatherers, and data users (design team) carried out a field trial using the Toolset to establish its usefulness to them in their work. The results of the evaluation showed that the data gatherers found the Toolset easy to implement and were able to use it to pick up overseas customers ergonomics requirements. The communication tools were able to provide the design team with new and useful customer ergonomics information, in a range of formats which they felt comfortable using in their work. The implementation of a user-centred design approach to the development of methods for collecting and communicating overseas customer ergonomics requirements enabled the creation of a Toolset which met the needs of the people who will use it. This increased its acceptance by people in the company and thus the likelihood of the Lifestyle Scenario Toolset's continued use within the company.

Abstract:
A key component of the smart factories that industry 4.0 introduce is the MES (manufacturing execution system). The MES lies above the actual shop floor in the enterprise system hierarchy and is not in direct contact with the actual production, in the way PLC (programmable logic control) or SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems are. MES guide, initiate, respond to and reports on the production activities as well as distribute information to other company IT systems, bridging the gap between the control systems of the shop floor and the information systems on an enterprise level. MES is a class of information systems built to support shop floor processes and improve the integration to other departments of the enterprise by incorporating these systems into the overall IT-architecture. The main goal of an MES is to improve and optimize the production management functions and increase visibility into the manufacturing process. The role of the MES is defined by industry standards that identify what functionalities and dataflows an MES should include, and how it is intended to be integrated with other information systems. However, little research has been focused on adopting these standards in actual MES implementation projects. The MESA (manufacturing executions system association) is presenting a standardized definition of MES as well as 2 models of the, according to the standard, 11 key MES functionalities. The ISA-95 (IEC/ISO 62264) standard identifies sub-systems of an MES and defines the boundaries between the ERP, MES and other automation and IT systems. Company parameters such as manufacturing environment, production model and plant type all affect the business needs and what MES functionalities are of priority. Hence, for an MES implementation project, a business-specific evaluation must be performed.  Prior research in the area is presenting a high-level workflow and best-practices of an MES implementation project. By combining this workflow with the general software implementation standard ISO/IEC 12588 (ISO/IEC 15288: System engineering – System lifecycle process), a methodology for performing the initial assessment of a company’s MES needs and business requirements is built. In the methodology models from MESA and ISA-95 are applied to ensure an industry-accepted terminology and process. The objective of the methodology is to provide a standardized way to make an initial assessment of a company’s MES needs and specify system requirements. The methodology is validated through a study performed at discrete manufacturing line. The overall needs and specific functional requirements are identified through the methodology and are presented according to a URS (user requirements specification) for an MES. The requirements are prioritizing according to MoSCoW analysis. Additional validation of the methodology must be performed to further evaluate the suitability of using the methodology for initial assessments of businesses’ MES needs.
En an nyckelkomponenterna för de smarta fabriker som industri 4.0 introducerar är MES (manufacturing execution system). Dessa system verkar för tillverkande företag ovanför produktions golvet i en klassisk hierarkisk företagsstruktur och är inte i direkt kontakt med produktionen, till skillnad från exempelvis PLC- (programmable logic control) eller SCADA- (supervisory control and data acquisition) system. Trots det guidar, initierar, svara på och rapporterar MES systemet kring produktionsaktiviteter samt distribuerar information till företagets övriga IT-system, vilket överbryggar luckan mellan produktionsgolvets kontrollsystem och övriga informationssystem på företagsnivå. Ett MES är en grupp av informationssystem byggda för att stötta processerna på produktionsgolvet och dess integration med övriga delar av företaget. Genom att koppla samman det till företagets totala IT-arkitektur. Det huvudsakligamålet med ett MES är att förbättra och optimera produktionsstyrnings funktioner samt öka insynen i tillverkningsprocesserna. Det existerar flertalet industristandarder som definierar vilken roll ett MES bör ha samt identifierar ess funktionaliteter samt relaterade data flöden och integrationer med övriga informations system. Å andra sidan är området kring hur dessa standarder bör tolkas och användas vid MES implementerings projekt. MESA (manufacturing execution system association) presenterar en standardiserad definition av vad MES är samt två modeller över de 11 huvud funktionaliteter som systemet enligt standarden bör innefatta. ISA-95 (IEC/ISO 62264) standarden identifierar del-system av ett MES samt definierar avgränsningen mellan ett företags ERP (enterprise resource planning) system, MES system och övriga automations och informationssystem. Företags parametrar, som tillverknings system, produktions modell samt fabriks typ, påverkar alla systembehovet samt vilka funktionaliteter som är prioriterade hos ett MES. Därav krävs det att företags specifika utvärdering utförs vid en MES implementering. Tidigare forsning inom området presenterar ett överblicks aktivitetsflöde och bästa praxis när det kommer till MES implementeringsprojekt. Genom att kombinera dessa med den generella mjukvaruimplementerings standarden ISO/IEC 15288 (ISO/IEC 15288: System engineering – System lifecycle process), byggs en metodik för att utföra en initial bedömning av ett företags behov av ett MES system, där modellerna presenterade i MESA och ISA-95 är applicerade. Målet med metodiken är att före en standardiserad metod för att göre en initial bedömning av ett företags MES behov samt specificera systemkrav. Metodiken är validerad genom en studie på en produktionslina. Genom att följa metodiken kan ett företags generella behov samt specifika funktionalitets krav specificeras i korrelation med generella användar-kravställningar för MES. För att validera metodikens lämplighet i det aktuella avseendet att göra en initial bedömning av ett företags MES behov krävs ytterligare utvärderingar och validerings studier.

Requirements analysis is the first step of the design process. It is also animportant source of innovation in companies, particularly when it is shared and fulfilled by themultidisciplinary design team. The prospection and anticipation of future needs are therefore animportant challenge for the development of new products adapted to their user. The goal of thisthesis is to optimize the anticipation of future needs in order to foster innovation. Ourassumptions include methodological and technological factors to improve the collaboration ofthe multidisciplinary team and the performance of requirements anticipation. Theseassumptions are operationalized through three different ways of running the Persona methodand tested in the context of three industrial projects. We show that a method combining severalreasoning modes adapted to the various professional backgrounds in the multidisciplinary team,the anticipation of needs is improved quantitatively and qualitatively (i.e. usefulness assessedby users). We also show that the technological support plays an important role in theeffectiveness of methods: a collaborative and playful technology such as an interactive tabletopcan increase the number of strategic ideas for the company (i.e. useful and technically feasible);an immersive and playful technology such as a virtual world can shape needs anticipation inaccordance with the project priorities (Techno-Centered or User-Centered). These results openmany opportunities for the methodological and technological evolution of front-end innovationphases towards the anticipation of future needs

Abstract:
This thesis develops an approach that supports multidisciplinary practice in requirements engineering. It is argued that multidisciplinary requirements engineering practice is ineffective, and some specific problems for multidisciplinary practice are identified. It is also suggested that the incommensurability of conflicting paradigms is an underlying cause of the problems in multidisciplinary practice, and a number of criteria for support to overcome such problems are proposed. A form of methodological support, which it is claimed may help overcome some of the problems associated with multidisciplinary practice in requirements engineering, is developed. This methodological support takes the form of a dialectic process, and its associated products, which is conceptualised and then operationalised. As an illustration of the methodological support offered to multidisciplinary practice, the operationalisation of the dialectic process is applied to requirements constructed by the use of two different requirements engineering techniques from two different disciplines (representing two different paradigms), in the domain of Accident and Emergency healthcare. Finally, the application of the operationalisation of the dialectic process is assessed with respect to the criteria for support for multidisciplinary practice proposed earlier, and this assessment is used to reconceptualise the dialectic process. The limitations of the research are identified, and possibilities for future work proposed. This thesis is aimed primarily at the requirements engineering community, and in particular the practising requirements engineer. It makes two contributions to knowledge supporting the practices of requirements engineering. First, the thesis contributes two types of substantive discipline knowledge: an explanation of why multidisciplinary practice in requirements engineering is problematic; and the proposal of criteria for support to allay the difficulties of multidisciplinary practice. It is suggested that these criteria might be used in the development of new types of support to overcomes such difficulties, or in the assessmment of new requirements engineering techniques that claim to address multidisciplinary practice. Second, the thesis contributes methodological knowledge in the form of a dialectic approach that offers a new way of reasoning about requirements engineering. This methodological knowledge takes two forms: a generic dialectic approach that might be applied by requirements engineering practitioners to requirements, generated by a wide range of requirements engineering techniques, representing alternative paradigms; and a specific instantiation of the dialectic approach using the MUSE method and the Grounded Theory method, that might be used in its current form by requirements engineering practitioners to support their own multidisciplinary practice.

Abstract:
Requirement elicitation is a critical activity in the requirement development process and it explores the requirements of stakeholders. The success or failure of this process is based on identifying the relevant stakeholders and discovering their needs as well as the quality of requirements. The quality of the requirements is greatly influenced by methods applied during requirements elicitation process. Only complete and structured requirements make these projects more reliable. The common challenges that analysts face during elicitation process are to ensure effective communication between stakeholders as well as the acquisition of tacit knowledge. Mostly errors in the systems are due to poor communication between user and analyst, and these errors require more resources (time and money) to correct them. The understandability problems during elicitation process of large web projects can lead to requirements ambiguous, inconsistent, incorrect and unusable. Different methods (Conversational, Observational, Analytical and Synthetic) are available to deal with the problems during requirement elicitation process. The challenge for analysts is to select an appropriate method or set of methods and apply them for the clear, consistent and correct requirement gathering. This study based on the results of interviews conducted to the professionals, who have industrial experience in development of web systems. The elicitation problems that are identified in literature and interview along with applicability of elicitation methods for requirement gathering in large web projects development are documented in this report.

Full text
Abstract:

The glazing is today a part of the car design. The customer is more or less taking for granted that his or her view from inside the car is a direct mirror of the outside world. With more complex shapes, lower installation angles and thinner glass it is a great challenge to produce even better quality at a lower price. While the windscreen is regulated by law, the lack of well specified requirements for the optics in the backlight (rear window), together with the absence of direct customer complaints, is causing the optical quality of the backlight to decrease. The requirements and measuring methods used today are described in technical terms and do not correspond to the human perception of optical distortion.

This report is a first step towards new technical requirements, for the optics of backlights, based on the driver’s perception of optical distortion. The knowledge of how optical transmission distortion occurs, how it should be measured and how it affects the driver, is essential in order to control it.

Several databases were searched and contacts with experts were established, in order to gain knowledge. The connection between the technical requirements and the human perception of optical distortion in backlights was investigated by using psychophysical methods. A within factorial design was employed with two independent variables; viewing distance from backlight to tailing object and fixation time (viewing time). The result showed a significant difference in perception of optical distortion between 25 and 75 metres. Moreover, optical distortion is, according to the test, more disturbing during free fixation time than for fixation times of about one second.

The requirements often used for backlights today (12 ± 5 millimetres) allow distortions that 68 percent of the test subjects perceived as disturbing. In order to please the test driver from Volvo the requirements need to be as high as 12 ± 2 millimetres, which correspond to the 96th percentile. Furthermore, the result confirms that dynamic measurements are needed to find a connection to human perception of optical distortion. The principles of a new measuring method that measures the deformation and the dynamic distortion were developed to show the possibilities of measuring what the driver perceives.

Even if a good measuring method can help controlling the produced glazing it is not enough to optimize the quality of the production. More important is the choice of thickness and curvature of the glass, the installation angle and the manufacturing method. It is important to set about the origin of the problem and develop a good routine of how to work with optical distortions. Optical distortions in backlights, similar to the tested backlight, have a low probability to disturb the driver in such extent that it has an effect on the driving. Nevertheless, it is a source of irritation and discomfort, which do not belong in a premium car.

Abstract:
How should requirements be expressed to support the design process of advanced software? This is what this report contributes based on facts from qualitative research methods performed at Ericsson Software Technology. The design process studied is influenced by different ways of expressing the requirements, problem-oriented and solution-oriented. The problem-oriented way of expressing requirements supports the designers to keep the overall picture of the product and make visions possible in the requirement handling process. The study also points out that the problem-oriented way of expressing requirements facilitates distributed software projects.

Abstract:
In the design process, the requirements serve as the benchmark for the entire product. Therefore, the quality of requirement statements is essential to the success of a design. Because of their ergonomic-nature, most requirements are written in natural language (NL). However, writing requirements in natural language presents many issues such as ambiguity, specification issues, and incompleteness. Therefore, identifying issues in requirements involves analyzing these NL statements. This paper presents a linguistic approach to requirement analysis, which utilizes grammatical elements of requirements statements to identify requirement statement issues. These issues are organized by the entity—word, sentence, or document—that they affect. The field of natural language processing (NLP) provides a core set of tools that can aid with this linguistic analysis and provide a method to create a requirement analysis support tool. NLP addresses requirements on processing levels: lexical, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic. While processing on the lexical and syntactic level are well-defined, mining semantic and pragmatic data is performed in a number of different methods. This paper provides an overview of these current requirement analysis methods in light of the presented linguistic approach. This overview will be used to identify areas for further research and development. Finally, a prototype requirement analysis support tool will be presented. This tool seeks to demonstrate how the semantic processing level can begin to be addressed in requirement analysis. The tool will analyze a sample set of requirements from a family of military tactical vehicles (FMTV) requirements document. It implements NLP tools to semantically compare requirements statements based upon their grammatical subject.

Abstract:
Ethical considerations are a very important aspect for each one of us. However, faculty typically are often so concerned with covering all content associated within course structure they may not have sufficient time for class discussion regarding ethical considerations relevant for one’s discipline. This is sometimes addressed by designing a specific course with a specific purpose being ethical considerations. For example one may see the existence of a “Business Ethics” course as a requirement for a business major. One of authors of this paper has designed an “Ethics and Information Systems” course offered as an elective in the MIS major. Issues such as downloading music without paying, ergonomic issues, issues of copyright, privacy issues, et cetera are covered through case studies. There is an examination of codes existing at the Midwestern university to cover ethical considerations related to computing. It is interesting to note that currently a student from this same Midwestern university is being sued for his file sharing practices.

Abstract:
In today’s increasingly competitive market environment, new packaging must meet more requirements than before to meet customer expectations. The packaging must meet not only functional and aesthetic requirements but also ergonomic requirements to ensure satisfying user experience. An important issue in ergonomic design is the identification of factors that lead to user comfort and discomfort. The packaging is a product that undergoes manual manipulation and given the various forms of packaging and it's opening and closing systems, they require using different grip types and movements. Using packaging that is not well designed can cause intense physical exertion and frustration for users. The subject of this paper is a review of methodologies for assessing the ergonomics of packaging products. Methodologies for evaluating the ergonomic characteristics of packaging provide a proposal for structuring the investigation. Also, it gives a proposal for the proper prioritization of a packaging problem that should be identified as the most dangerous risks for physical injuries or for causing stressful situations to users. First, it is necessary to gain a clear insight into how the users handle the packaging in order to create knowledge and a clear idea of what is useful or harmful in the existing packaging design and to find the potential for its improvement. There are various methods for studying, analyzing and evaluating user experience while using a packaging. Combining such methods with knowledge of the anatomical structure of the body and how it reacts to the load enables the creation of efficient and ergonomically designed packaging. This paper will present methodologies and guidelines for assessing and improving the ergonomic qualities of packaging. The aim of this paper is to define the key factors and most relevant methodologies for conducting successful ergonomic research.

Abstract:
Ergonomics is a discipline that considers the mental and physical capabilities and limitations of people in relation to the demands of their work. The goal of ergonomics is to minimize error and fatigue by matching job requirements with human abilities through a process of analysis and design in determining the dimensions and layout of the workspace, the design of tools and equipment, and the development of work procedures. When jobs fit people, the result is improved productivity, reduced accidents and injuries and greater job satisfaction. This paper briefly examines the ergonomic approach to identifying and reducing job related risk factors associated with cumulative trauma disorders and back stress. Examples of controls to eliminate risk factors are presented along with some workplace design principles and guidelines. Paper published with permission.

Full text
Abstract:
Power plants originally designed to be decommissioned at 20–30 years are extending their service life by removing/replacing major power plant components. This requirement is contrary to the original floor and workspace designs engineered for power plants. Feedwater heaters, casks, heat exchangers, and other very large (50′ ±) and heavy (20–100 Ton) components can overcome floor and space restrictions by using a combination of air casters and cranes. This proven methodology saves in excess of 75% of the cost of a standard crane-only operation and significantly reduces the possibility of permanent floor damage. Air caster transport systems are low profile and easily insert under industrial heaters, exchangers, transformers, etc. The casters raise components and carry them across the floor, spreading the multi-ton weight across the surface area without damage to the floor or component. Air casters are frictionless even with the heaviest loads, and significantly reduce ergonomic risk while also providing the benefit of requiring a reduced workforce to move the component across the floor. Controlled drive systems allow a single operator to easily move components omni-directionally without wheels or rails, and into position within .5″ (13mm) accuracy. The air caster methodology for moving heavy loads was referenced as proven effective in existing nuclear plants in the 2004 ICONE paper presented by Tokyo Power. Air casters, often coupled with cranes, significantly lower material handling costs associated with new installation and repair/refurbishment of components up to and over 5000 tons. Air casters operate on normal compressed air and have very few moving parts, resulting in low ongoing maintenance costs.
