The present paper deals with the problem of the ergonomics of maintenance tasks in automotive industry pursuing the following aims: analysis of Human Modelling Software and their use in automotive task analysis; development of a design methodology (named EDIVE)for maintainability of the component parts of a car engine compartment in a virtual environment and, finally, the individuation of an optimal postural sequence to disassemble such components, taking into account human factors. In the paper the authors show how to integrate DMU tools and Digital Human Modelling software in order to individuate the optimal postural sequence of an operator that have to disassemble a component part of a car engine compartment.

Abstract

The present paper deals with the problem of the ergonomics of maintenance tasks in automotive industry pursuing the following aims: analysis of Human Modelling Software and their use in automotive task analysis; development of a design methodology (named EDIVE)for maintainability of the component parts of a car engine compartment in a virtual environment and, finally, the individuation of an optimal postural sequence to disassemble such components, taking into account human factors. In the paper the authors show how to integrate DMU tools and Digital Human Modelling software in order to individuate the optimal postural sequence of an operator that have to disassemble a component part of a car engine compartment.
