Limestone sorting work at PT. Embossed Persada is a repetitive work attitude and a long period of time, so that it can be at risk of causing Musculoskeletal disorders and discomfort at work. The purpose of this study is to analyze the working posture of limestone sorting operators. There are 3 work postures: limestone sorting work posture has a value of 4141, work posture for limestone removal 2173, and work posture for limestone 3333. Other objectives of this study are to identify work postures that have a risk of Musculoskeletal injury. Based on the results of the categorization of OWAS valu

Abstract:
We construct human posture probability density based on actual human motion measurement. Human postures in daily life were measured for two days by having subjects wear a mechanical motion capture device. Accumulated human postures were converted to unit quaternions to guarantee the uniqueness of posture representation. To represent probability density effectively, we propose eigenpostures for posture compression and use the kernel-based reduced set density estimator (RSDE) to reduce the number of posture samples and construction of posture probability density.

Automated lying-posture tracking is important in preventing bed-related disorders, such as pressure injuries, sleep apnea, and lower-back pain. Prior research studied in-bed lying posture tracking using sensors of different modalities (e.g., accelerometer and pressure sensors). However, there remain significant gaps in research regarding how to design efficient in-bed lying posture tracking systems. These gaps can be articulated through several research questions, as follows. First, can we design a single-sensor, pervasive, and inexpensive system that can accurately detect lying postures? Seco

To investigate the joint effects of body posture and calf muscle pump, the calf blood flow of eight healthy volunteers was measured with pulsed Doppler equipment during and after 3 min of rhythmic exercise on a calf ergometer in the supine, sitting, and standing postures. Muscle contractions seriously impeded calf blood flow. Consequently, blood flow occurred mainly between contractions and reached a plateau that lasted at least the final 100 s of each exercise series. After exercise the blood flow decreased much faster in the sitting and standing postures than in the supine posture. There was

ABSTRACT Postural deformities are a commonly encountered problem among children. Most of the aches and pains of adults are the result, not of injuries, but of the long-term effects of distortions in posture or alignment that have their origins in childhood or adolescence. Television, video entertainment, motorized transportation, fast food and lack of regular physical activity contribute to the poor physical condition of children. Childhood obesity has increased dramatically in the past decade. Countries in economic transition from underdeveloped to developed, such as South Africa, are particu

Abstract:
In recent history, the convention that adopting an ‘upright’ seated posture would decrease lumbar strain has shifted. The idea of dynamically varying seated posture is being considered as optimal for reducing lumbar strain and possibly lower back pain [1–2]. Thus, it would seem vital to design a device that helps alert users of the need to change their seated postures in workplace or study environments.

Abstract:
Abstract The aerodynamic drag force has a relevant effect on cycling performance since it is one of the major resistive forces acting on the bicycle. For this reason, this paper presents the development of an experimental methodology to estimate the aerodynamic parameters of a bicycle-cyclist set. The methodology combines outdoor measurements to estimate the drag area with indoor measurements to measure the projected frontal area. The methodology was implemented to quantify the effect of posture in the aerodynamic parameters of a group of cyclists. The tests were performed to characterize the
