Perception and biomechanics data in a manual handling task: A comparative study
Article Abstract:
The use of subjective perception tasks and its correlations with biomechanical data is explored in the evaluation of manual material handling considering three main dimensions for perception, physical, operative and performance regroups. Perceptions associated with operative dimension appeared to be less related with biomechanical data while all physical and performance items corresponded in various ways to biomechanics data.

Technical note. Designing safe job rotation schedules using optimization and heuristic search
Article Abstract:
Exposure to strenuous materials handling may be reduced by job rotation, but designing effective rotations schedules can be complex. Research provides a set of guidelines for safe rotation schedules without the need for a computer.

Technical Note. Examination of the use of fuzzy sets to describe relative speed perception
Article Abstract:
Fuzzy logic has recently been used to evaluate driver behaviour. Latest research shows its use in describing driver perception of the closing speed between two vehicles following on a motorway.
