Ergonomics evaluation of a lever-operated knapsack sprayer.
The lever-operated knapsack sprayer, a manually operated piece of equipment, is widely used by Indian farmers for the application of agricultural chemicals. The study reported here is an ergonomics evaluation of one model of this type of sprayer. Data on 18 body dimensions and the shape of the back were collected for 10 subjects and their relevance in sprayer design are discussed. During the op...
متن کاملErgonomic evaluation of conventional agricultural sprayers with respect to human performance
Ergonomic intervention in spraying operation can provide a reasonable basis for recommendation on operating methods and improvement in operation for more output and safety. Two commercially available sprayers namely knapsack sprayer and rocker sprayer were evaluated with nine male subjects for the study. Age, weight and height of the selected subjects are 30.33±1.93 years, 68.33±9.51 kg and 168...
متن کاملQuantifying Computational Effort Required for Stochastic Averages.
We propose a measure that quantifies the effort needed to compute a given stochastic average, considered in the context of molecular modeling. This "difficulty index" is defined in terms of CPU time, observed uncertainty, and a characteristic scale for the quantity being computed. This metric provides a focus for optimization and comparison of methods and, if applied broadly, could aid understa...
متن کاملModeling Optimal Scheduling for Pumping System to Minimize Operation Cost and Enhance Operation Reliability
Traditional pump scheduling models neglect the operation reliability which directly relates with the unscheduled maintenance cost and the wear cost during the operation. Just for this, based on the assumption that the vibration directly relates with the operation reliability and the degree of wear, it could express the operation reliability as the normalization of the vibration level. The chara...
متن کاملDesign, Development and Analysis of Toggle Lever Caliper Cable Trolley Brake for Fail Safe Operation
Present cable trolley brakes used in material transfer or overhead trolley transport systems uses twin shoe caliper brakes operated by solenoid. These brakes are not fail safe, means that slip occurs between cable and brake caliper. Sometimes overloading leads to wear of brake shoe material. The failure of brake system may increase the chances to loss of life of occupant. These conventional cal...
