The effective use of computational modeling and simulation tools early in the design process
is arguably becoming a gold standard for modern product development. Compared to many …

Proactive ergonomics can improve the overall performance and well-being of the user and
has the potential to improve the product quality and reduce the cost of resources. Application …

This paper presents a manifesto for the future design of human-made systems and engage
this reflection by promoting a computational human factors engineering (HFE) approach. In …

Designers should adequately develop user considerations such as usability, safety, and
comfort during the design process of new systems. Nevertheless, incorporating human …

Human errors are attributed to a majority of accidents and malfunctions in complex
engineered systems. The human error and functional failure reasoning (HEFFR) framework …

Purpose Many advanced technologies applied to maintenance are aimed at data analysis
and not directly at the execution of activities. Considering the lack of studies that analyze the …

Human variability related to physical, cognitive, socio-demographic, and other factors can
contribute to large differences in human performance. Quantifying population heterogeneity …

Human error has always been a source of threat for any human–machine interaction system.
Incidents like Bhopal gas tragedy, Three Mile Island and Chernobyl are examples of havoc …

Numerous computational strategies were introduced in the past decades to integrate human
aspects into the design process; perhaps, none provided a broader product design capacity …

In user-centred design, digital human models hold the potential for proactive evaluations of
ergonomics or discomfort in terms of a computer aided ergonomics tool. Therefore, models …
