3D fuzzy ergonomic analysis for rapid workplace design and modification in construction

Currently, the expanded multifaceted nature of items and assembling forms presents world-class manufacturers with time to market and resource improvement challenges. Assembling Engineering Teams are expected to empower perfect new item dispatches and hold fast to cost, quality and beginning of creation targets. To address these difficulties, driving makers influence their authoritative knowledge and the accessibility of 3D models of items and assets to practically approve their assembling forms forthright. With new advancing innovation, a large number of approval investigations can be directed productively and naturally to guarantee forthright creation advancement. A definitive objective of office ergonomics is to make the working station appropriate for the laborer and all the laborers with the adaptability to get most extreme profitability and productivity. This paper proposes an appraisal of a workplace design and ergonomics analysis based on simulation. Therefore, is possible to solve ergonomic risk in the workplace design.

Task Parameters

Modeling of human motion is common in ergonomic analysis of industrial tasks and can help improve workplace design. We propose a method for modeling the trajectories of hand movements in the frontal plane during a sequential reach task that involves threading string through a system of pulleys. We model the motions as a combination of two consecutive phases, one where the hand is reaching between pulleys and another when the hand is engaged in threading a target pulley. Hand trajectories were modeled separately for each phase by fitting basis-splines to the observed data. Predicted trajectories were computed using task parameters as the input and compared to observed trajectories from the 12 participants who completed the study.

Machine Operators

A musculoskeletal disorder is highly dependent on the workplace design. The workers whose job requires repetitive tasks, are more prone to this disorder. Textile industry is one of the labor intensive industries and most of its jobs require continuous engagement with the work. Sewing machine operators in this sector due to workplace design are facing high risk of health issues due to focused attention and static posture of the body. Understanding the health issues linked with continuous working hours and static posture need to be addressed. Both Government and non- government organizations need to be better involved in designing interventions targeting these people and protecting them from such health risks.The present study was conducted in Hisar district from Haryana state in which respondents were selected randomly. Total number of respondents were 60 in which 28 were males and 32 were females with objectives to assess work organization and work space design and to find out the occupational health problems and musculoskeletal symptoms among sewing machine operators. The results showed that maximum numbers of the respondents (68.4%) were took break of fixed duration and (53.4%) respondents were work along with others. Majority (43.3%) respondents were the first experience of MSK symptoms from 7 days to 12 months followed by (33.3%) respondents in 2-3 years.
