  1. 6. Demand Responsive Planning : A dynamic and responsive planning framework based on workload control theory for cyber-physical production systems

    Författare :Hakan Akillioglu; Mauro Onori; Marcello Colledani; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Demand responsive planning; continuous workload control; cyber-physical production systems; evolvable production systems; dynamic capacity adjustment; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Recent developments in the area of Cyber-Physical Production Systems prove that high technology readiness level is already achieved and industrialization of such technologies is not far from today. Although these technologies seem to be convenient in providing solutions to environmental uncertainties, their application provides adaptability only at shop floor level. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Methods to assess physical load at work : With a focus on the neck and upper extremities

    Författare :Peter Palm; Mikael Forsman; Magnus Svartengren; Svend Erik Mathiassen; Eva Vingård; Esa Pekka Takala; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; risk assessment; physical load; upper extremities; ergonomics; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; Arbets- och miljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : To prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), useful, reliable and valid methods for assessing physical workload and risks for MSDs are needed. Ergonomists often assess work by short visual observations without a specific tool. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Interventions for increased physical activity among office workers

    Författare :Viktoria Wahlström; Lisbeth Slunga-Järvholm; Tommy Olsson; Therese Stenlund; Fredrik Öhberg; Andreas Holtermann; Umeå universitet; []

  5. 9. Physical workload in surgery : from risk assessments to interventions

    Författare :Xuelong Fan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Surgeons often suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), with the neck, shoulders, and low back being the most affected body sites. Among other factors, the high physical workload has been recognized as a major risk factor contributing to the high occurrence of WMSDs. LÄS MER
