It is very diffcult to applied ergonomics data & experiments in industrial design. At the industrial design process attempted toadoption a egonomics. But sometimes easyto use ergonomics data and at other times very hard to adopted a element into a design process. Industrial design of the essence is a sensual act. As ergonomics data is to the hardware, sois the design sense to the software. The harmony are important to hardware & software of design process. New products demand to new form. Therefore, designer neglect to ergonomics experiments for user. Anyway, ergonomics experiments & data endlessly applied to more things year after year. This paper show improved computer front design with graphic, knobs size & control panel tilt angle.

Shipbuilding workers are potentially exposed to ergonomic hazards in the manufacturing process. The purpose of this study is to describe the impact of an ergonomic intervention and the implementation effect of ergonomics program at a shipbuilding company. This study portrays an implementation procedure of ergonomics program over a period of two years concerning ergonomic hazard analysis and improvement, along with medical management. After implementation of the ergonomics program, the productivity improved, and the rate of accidental incidents decreased, also the loss of workdays decreased largely. The implementation effect of ergonomics program presented in this study can be used to provide baseline information for the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders in the shipbuilding industry.

Human Sensibility Ergonomics could be termed as an engineering approach to realize image or feeling of human into product design. Therefore, we measure qualitatively, quantitatively and scientifically the sensibility of human and apply it to design of product and environment, Later, we will try to help to manufacture products conveniently and comfortably for more pleasent human life. As the concept of products is changed from producer oriented products to consumer oriented, the technical trend of Human Sensibility Ergonomics improves and the demand of it increases. As we recognize the concept and importance of Human Sensibility Ergonomics in the country, we are going to apply to automobil, home appliance, etc. So, it is important to analyze the technical trend, survey the demand of Human Sensibility Ergonomics in the inside and outside of country, because it contributes to set up research direction and of Human Sensibility Ergonomics and to estabilish the priority of R&D, etc. This study is the analysis of the technical trend and character by fieldes of Human Sensibility Ergonomics in the country, surveyed the technical demand on automobile, home appliance in product field and the sensor of the five senses and processing technology in the infra technology field of Human Sensibility Ergonomics.

유발뇌파의 감성지수파라미터를 뇌파의 지속시간과 크기로 설정하고 감성지표화하려는 뇌파에 Prony모델을 적용하여 감성의 지속시간과 크기를 추정하였다. Prony모델을 적용하여 유발뇌파를 실험분석한 결과 대역별특성을 분석할 수 있었고, 감성평가지수 파라미터인 감성지속시간과 크기를 추정함으로써 안타까움, 분노 및 공포의 감성을 감성평가지수로 분류할 수 있었으며, 추정된 파라미터가 감성평가지수로서 적합함을 확인하였다.

Objective: The Work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) have been a problem on industrial occupational safety and health in Korean shipyard industry. It has been a big social problem. Background: As a result, Korean government enacted a law to prevent musculoskeletal disorders at work and some major companies have already implemented an ergonomics program. Method: This paper presents a study on the effect of an ergonomics program in a Korean shipbuilding company during the last ten years. Conclusion: The Incidence of WMSDs, the worker's compensation cost and the lost time were decreased after implementation of the ergonomics program. Application: The results of the publishing will help efficient operation of MSDs prevention activity in other companies.

The great growth and development in the automobile industry have been made at the hardware site consisting of Car over about 100 years. The biggest key of future automobile industry with fierce competition is up to product development with high customer satisfaction through the ergonomics that is applied to car efficiently and effectively. Until Now, The Study of Ergonomics has been used for effective Car design. But At the 21st Century automotive, it will be used for Survival through the differentiation and merchantability of vehicle in highly competitive. That is a big difference. We will review the role of ergonomics in the vehicle development stage with Ssangyong Case.

The objective of this paper is to study the usability of the ingress/egress of elderly people, and analyze the physiological workload electromyography (EMG). We investigated the factors of discomfort while the elderly people are using the ingress/egress. Experiments were performed using a seating buck with 22 elderly participants (over 65 years old). The results showed that different muscles are activated during ingress and egress. A system called "easy access" was found which helps to access easily when a driver gets into a car. The current easy access was compared a newly proposed one. It was found that elderly people use less muscle during in/egress in the new easy access system.

This paper analyzes some important achievements in Ergonomics field in CRT industry. After introducing principal regulatory requirements for CRTs, including ISO 9241 and TCO standards, the paper indicates some theoretical research in ergonomics of the display devices, such as new contrast parameter for appraising the display devices and effects of environment on visual performance at the ergonomic. Then, as the pivot of this paper, some practical progress, in the ergonomics field in CRT manufacturing , are described, such as vacuum sputtering process for advanced CRTs, new developed wet process for getting the multi-coating layers on surface of the panel.

Currently an office in information society is advanced to a digitalized VDT office. The VDT office has a natural luminous system prioritizing visual perception and so importance of lighting design by artificial lighting is emphasized in the VDT office. The purpose of the study is to analyze Illumination and Luminance for lighting design by the standard of ergonomics in the VDT office. The study analyzed Illumination and Luminance in the main control room of an nuclear power plant needing a design of ergonomics ACR(Advanced Control Room) type Ling Ao phase II NPP MCR in Guangdong, China. The study examined the relativity of ACR characteristics to its operator's duties and set up an outline of lighting design, the standard of ergonomics and input data for the analysis. Thus, the study examined appropriateness with the standard of ergonomics setting up the analyzed Illumination and Luminance and drew a conclusion.

Importance of the work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) has been increasing in the manufacturing industry such as the domestic shipbuilding industry and car industry. Recently, companies have implemented the risk factor investigation due to the amendment of the industrial safety and health law in 2003. At the same time, some large companies have introduced and implemented an ergonomics program for WMSDs. Yet, until now a study of the effect and management of the ergonomics program has not been conducted. In 2005, we audited an ergonomics program in a domestic shipbuilding company four times for 9-month period. The company implemented an ergonomics program from 2003 to 2005. From the investigation, this paper reveals the effects and problems of the ergonomics program implemented by the company and presents methods for its improvement. The findings described in this paper will help the companies to implement their ergonomics program for WMSDs in the future.
