Environmental Ergonomics: Principles, Methods, and Applications
Environmental Ergonomics: Principles, Methods, and Applications provides the philosophy, principles and application of environmental ergonomics as a universal concept and considers total environments as an integration of environmental factors to which people are exposed. The book develops the definition of environmental ergonomics and presents the principles, methods and application of knowledge in the areas of human response to heat and cold, sound, vibration, light and air quality and addresses diverse environments and people. The title explains the effects of the environment on the health, comfort and performance of people for all environmental components, introduces environmental ergonomics as a universal subject and offers general principles and methods for measuring and representing the environment and its effects. A wide range of case studies demonstrates the application of the subject for all environmental components and for integrated environments. Special environments such as vehicles and unique populations such as people with disabilities, are considered in the book. The title concludes with an in-depth understanding of total environments with a description of how to conduct an environmental ergonomics survey and a case study. An ideal read for any professional or student interested in environmental ergonomics, including architects, occupational hygienists, interior designers, systems engineers, civil engineers, HVAC engineers and building services engineers. The title will help any reader develop a thorough understanding of the effects of the environment on the health, comfort and performance of people.

This book showcases cutting-edge research papers from the 8th International Conference on Research into Design (ICoRD 2021) written by eminent researchers from across the world on design processes, technologies, methods and tools, and their impact on innovation, for supporting design for a connected world. The theme of ICoRD‘21 has been “Design for Tomorrow”. The world as we know it in our times is increasingly becoming connected. In this interconnected world, design has to address new challenges of merging the cyber and the physical, the smart and the mundane, the technology and the human. As a result, there is an increasing need for strategizing and thinking about design for a better tomorrow. The theme for ICoRD’21 serves as a provocation for the design community to think about rapid changes in the near future to usher in a better tomorrow. The papers in this book explore these themes, and their key focus is design for tomorrow: how are products and their development be addressed for the immediate pressing needs within a connected world? The book will be of interest to researchers, professionals and entrepreneurs working in the areas on industrial design, manufacturing, consumer goods, and industrial management who are interested in the new and emerging methods and tools for design of new products, systems and services.
