Psychophysically determining the maximum acceptable weight of lift for polypropylene laminated bags
The objective of this study was to psychophysically determine the maximum acceptable weight of lift (MAWL) for polypropylene (PP) laminated bags. Twelve men were requested to decide their MAWLs under various task combinations involving 3 lifting ranges, 3 lifting frequencies, and 2 hand conditions. The results revealed that the MAWL was significantly affected by the frequency and range variable...
متن کاملDetermining Changes in Electromyography Indices when Measuring Maximum Acceptable Weight of Lift in Iranian Male Students
Background: In spite of the increasing degree of automation in industry, manual material handling (MMH) is still performed in many occupational settings. The aim of the current study was to determine the maximum acceptable weight of lift using psychophysical and electromyography indices.Methods: This experimental study was conducted among 15 male students recruited from Tehran University of Med...
متن کاملStudy of Maximum Acceptable Weight of Lift for Indian Male Industrial Workers
Most of studies on Manual Material Handling (MMH) tasks for finding lifting capacity were done on general population; these were not done for underweight, normal weight and overweight workers. MMH task involves the use of the human body to lift, lower or carry loads. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of psychophysical approach on MAWL for underweight, normal weight and overwei...
متن کاملSignificance of biomechanical and physiological variables during the determination of maximum acceptable weight of lift.
The aim was to identify which biomechanical and physiological variables were associated with the decision to change the weight of lift during the determination of the maximum acceptable weight of lift (MAWL) in a psychophysical study. Fifteen male college students lifted a box of unknown weight at 4.3 lifts/min, and adjusted the weight until their MAWL was reached. Variables such as heart rate,...
