  1. 6. Developing a Value Proposition of Maritime Ergonomics

    Författare :Cecilia Österman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; operational performance; socio-technical systems.; Ergonomics; value proposition; maritime economics; human element; shipping; participatory ergonomics;

    Sammanfattning : There is a large body of knowledge available on the importance of ergonomics for successful(and unsuccessful) systems. Domain specific handbooks, guidelines and standards can befound also for the maritime industry. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Unpacking Online Retailing : The Organization of Warehouse Work and Inequality

    Författare :Klara Rydström; Lena Abrahamsson; Kristina Johansson; Fredrik Sjögren; Kristina Boréus; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Work organization; gender; race ethnicity; warehousing; e-commerce; Arbetsvetenskap; Human Work Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation studies the organization of warehouse work and inequality in Swedish online retailing. Online retailing relocates the work of providing service to individual customers, usually performed by frontline workers in retail stores, to warehouses backstage. LÄS MER

  3. 8. The Human Element in Marine Engine Department Operation: Human Factors & Ergonomics Knowledge Mobilization in Ship Design & Construction

    Författare :Steven Mallam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Naval Architecture; Knowledge Transfer; Participatory Ergonomics; Work Environment; Marine Engineer;

    Sammanfattning : Physical environments influence how individuals perceive, behave and perform within an operational space and system. Marine engine department operations have dramatically developed from the initial introduction of ship mechanization in the nineteenth century, to ever increasing levels of computerized and automated functions today.

  4. 9. Emergence and Dynamics of Circular Economy Ecosystem

    Författare :Ida Eyi Heathcote-Fumador; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Digital Technologies; business ecosystem; circular economy ecosystem; ecosystem renewal; residual resources; strategy; knowledge appropriation; management;

    Sammanfattning : The circular economy ecosystem (CEE) offers the potential to effectively manage the pressing issue of residual resources, encompassing waste and by-products that pose a challenge to our planet. Among various organizational forms, the ecosystem approach has emerged as the preferred method, fostering cross-industry collaboration to sustainably address residual resources. LÄS MER

  5. 10. PRODUCTION ERGONOMICS EVALUATION - NEEDS, PROCEDURES AND DIGITAL HUMAN MODELING TOOLS

    Författare :Cecilia Berlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cumulative; Production Ergonomics; Digital Human Modeling; Prevention; Musculo-Skeletal Disorders; DHM; Time; Virtual Tools;

    Sammanfattning : In production systems, human operators may be at risk for developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), resulting in pain, inability to work and high costs. An increasingly capable tool for identifying MSD risks early in the production design process are Digital Human Models (DHMs), although their built-in analysis tools are in great need of development regarding how they address time-related aspects of load exposure.
