  1. 21. Working for a Wage - What´s the Point? Lived Experiences of Meaningfulness and Meaninglessness in Professional and Manual Occupations

    Författare :André Alvinzi; Monika Berg; Ylva Uggla; Magnus Boström; Annette Kamp; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Meaning of work; meaning of working; meaningfulness; meaninglessness; meaning of wage labor; meaningful work; meaningless work; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores experiences of meaningfulness and meaninglessness in wage labor, and how these work experiences relate to social and organizational factors in work situations (situational meaning). It also explores the centrality and value of wage labor in life in a broader sense (existential meaning). LÄS MER

  2. 22. Muscular activity in light manual work - with reference to the development of muscle pain among computer users

    Författare :Stefan Thorn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cinderella hypothesis; myalgia; muscle rest; doublets; extensor digitorum communis muscle; motor units; computer work; intramuscular electromyography; trapezius muscle;

    Sammanfattning : Work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in the neck/shoulder area and the upper extremities are common among computer users, despite the relatively low muscle load levels involved. Muscle pain (myalgia), primarily experienced in the neck/shoulder area, is a frequent type of WMSD. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Towards improvement of geometrical quality for manual assembly parts

    Författare :Mikael Rosenqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; calculation model; geometry system; Interview; assessment; action cost.; assembly; error; ergonomics; assembly complexity; design for assembly; robust design; complexity; manual assembly; sustainable; tolerance analysis and design; CAT; quality; failure; action cost; assembly ergonomics;

    Sammanfattning : Geometrical variation affects all mass-produced products. This variation will lead to deviations from the nominal design of the product both in terms of aesthetical and functional properties. Geometrical variation originates either from the manufacturing of the parts or from the assembly process.

  4. 24. Supervisors' role in manual assembly

    Författare :Anna Grzelec; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; assembly line; first-line management; motivation; supervisor;

    Sammanfattning : There are many different ways in which to analyze an organization when striving to achieve better performance. One such way is through analyzing the supervisors in the organization. The supervisor is the first management level, and is in charge of the production personnel, i.e. LÄS MER

  5. 25. An investigation of cognitive aspects affecting human performance in manual assembly

    Författare :Anna Brolin; Keith Case; Peter Thorvald; Leo De Vin; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cognitive ergonomics; Manual assembly; Manufacturing; Usability; Cognitive workload; Information presentation; Material presentation; Product variants; Kitting; Technology; Teknik; User Centred Product Design; Användarcentrerad produktdesign;

    Sammanfattning : Modern manufacturing systems seem to be shifting from mass production to mass customisation, which means that systems must be able to manage changes in customer demands and requirements, new technology as well as environmental demands. This in turn leads to an increase in product variants that need to be assembled. LÄS MER
