Comparing the biomechanical and perceived exertion imposed on workers when using manual mechanical and powered cargo management systems during ladder loading and unloading tasks
2021, International Journal of Industrial ErgonomicsCitation Excerpt :Eighth, the results of three of our variables (peak force LBCF and shoulder moments) resulted in a statistical power that was lower than the conventional 0.80. Finally, we calculated the positions of the hands and feet, and the trunk and head angles based on 2D-video-based analysis, and then we used these data to compute the biomechanical variables using the double optimization technique proposed by Bean et al. (1988) and implemented using 3DSSPP™ software. A vast amount of the literature shows that video-based approaches are valid techniques for estimating biomechanical variables during loading and unloading tasks in a variety of occupational settings (Lad et al., 2018; Parkinson et al., 2011).

2015, Applied ErgonomicsCitation Excerpt :Based on the satisfaction of moment equilibrium at a single level, two different models are used to estimate loads at the L5-S1 and L4-L5 levels. The L5-S1 model incorporates only one equivalent back (erector spinae) and one equivalent abdominal (rectus abdominus) muscle while the L4-L5 model incorporates 10 muscles (2 pairs of back and 3 pairs of abdominal muscles) and employs an optimization algorithm (double linear min–max approach, Bean et al., 1988) to resolve the joint redundancy problem. The posture prediction algorithm of this software allows for the estimation of three-dimensional trunk, pelvis, arms, and legs orientations for a given location of hand load.
