Abstract:
This paper makes general recommendations for workstation design. To prevent back problems, a chair should maintain a 105 degrees angle between the trunk and the thighs. For bent-forward work, a seat pan that can tilt forward allows the critical angle to be maintained.

01:24Normal and Tangetial Components: Problem Solving
Consider a man with a mass of 70 kg seated in a chair connected to a pin support through a member BC. If the man maintains an upright position, the task is to determine the horizontal and vertical reactions of the chair on the man when the member makes a 45° angle with the horizontal. At this moment, the man has a speed of 5 m/s, increasing at a rate of 1 m/s².
01:11Anatomical Positions
In anatomy, several standard anatomical positions are used as references for describing the position and orientation of different body parts. These positions help provide a common frame of reference when discussing anatomical structures. The anatomical position is the standard reference point for describing the body's position and orientation. In this position:
The body is upright, facing forward, and standing erect.
The feet are parallel and flat on the floor.
The arms are hanging by the...
