A study on maximum acceptable weight limit (MAWL) was conducted on ten adult Indian female building construction workers (CW) and eight household workers (HW), following the psychophysical methodology. All these workers were in the age group of 28–32 years. In this study, three different body heights (i.e. knee, waist and maximum reach) in sagittal plane were considered. The lifting frequency w...

The objective of this work was to formulate a mathematical model for predicting a safe weight of lift. Considering the intratruncal pressure, post-work height shrinkage of the worker and strain energy of the intervertebral disc, the SWL function was derived in terms of the Young Modulus of elasticity (E) of the articular cartilage (endplate of the disc); velocity of lift (u); acceleration due t...

Hamzah Fansuri is well known as the first Sufi poet in Malay world and should be studied part of both Sufism literature because he was to expound theory wahdat al-wuj?d archipelago express his feelings for using rub?'? verse form. He has been called “Mawl?n? Jal?l al-D?n R?m? world” pioneering combination region. Hamza Fansûrî reveals understanding main themes vahdet-i wujûd (unity existence) p...

A form-based service is one in which the ow of data between service and user is described by a sequence of query/response interactions, or forms. Mawl is a domain-speci c language for programming form-based services in a device-independent manner. We focus on Mawl's form abstraction, which is the means for separating service logic from user interface description, and show how this simple abstra...

The objective of this study was to identify the perceived exertion mechanisms (direct muscle force and whole body exertion) associated with the decision to change the weight of lift during the determination of the maximum acceptable weight of lift (MAWL). Fifteen males lifted a box of unknown weight at a rate of 4.3 lifts/min, and adjusted the weight until their MAWL was reached. Variables such...

Using the results of psychophysical and biomechanical experiments, NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) Recommended Weight Limit (RWL), the Lifting Index (LI), the form of the asymmetry multiplier, and the criterion for compression force were investigated. Analysis of the results indicated a significant difference between the NIOSH RWL and the reported Maximum Acceptabl...

A form-based service is one in which the ow of data between service and user is described by a sequence of query/response interactions, or forms. A form provides a user interface that presents service data to the user, collects information from a user and returns it to the service. Mawl is a domain-speci c language for programming form-based services in a device-independent manner. We describe ...
