Journal ArticleDOI
Trunk muscle electromyographic activity with unstable and unilateral exercises.
TL;DR: The superman exercise was the most effective trunk-stabilizer exercise for back-st stabilizer activation, whereas the side bridge was the optimal exercise for lower-abdominal muscle activation.
Journal Article
Motion sickness symptoms in a ship motion simulator: effects of inside, outside, and no view.
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that appropriate visual information on self-motion is beneficial in a naval setting and that task performance is likely reduced as sickness increases, and why the least sickness was observed when subjects were blindfolded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of human error in risk analysis: Application to pre- and post-maintenance procedures of process facilities
TL;DR: The present study focuses on a human factors analysis in pre- and post- pump maintenance operations of an offshore process facility, aimed at highlighting the importance of considering human error in quantitative risk analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human reliability assessment during offshore emergency conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a quantitative approach to Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) during emergency conditions in an offshore environment using a Bayesian Network (BN) approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of human error probabilities in maintenance procedures of a pump
TL;DR: In this paper, the human error probability (HEP) is calculated for each activity, using the Human Error Assessment and Reduction Technique (HEART) which is commonly implemented technique in industry, can also be applied in the analyses of safety cases.
