“…It is important to highlight that this validation of joint torque estimation and the resulting joint effort with respect to the baseline joint efforts and computed torques complements the original validation results presented in [24]. 6 https://github.com/robotology/idyntree 2) Tpose with load Concerning the experiment where the subject moves the dominant right arm from Npose to Tpose configuration with a 5 kg payload, we are certain that no external interaction wrench is present on the left hand of the subject. Hence, we consider zero wrench measurement and a low measurement covariance value of 10 −6 for the left hand.…”

“…The rise of digital transformation in human factors and ergonomics enhancement is an indication of targeted focus on improving the quality of work for human beings through wearable sensors, collaborative robots, and exoskeletons, as the complexity of work is increasing [3] [4]. The qualitative assessments that are typically employed in the field of occupational health and safety are limited in their applicability for the new age of Industry 4.0 [5] [6].…”

Improving the quality of work for human beings is receiving a lot of attention from multiple research communities. In particular, digital transformation in human factors and ergonomics is going to empower the next generation of the socio-technical workforce. The use of wearable sensors, collaborative robots, and exoskeletons, coupled with novel technologies for the real-time assessment of human ergonomy forms the crux of this digital transformation. In this direction, this paper focuses on the open problem of estimating the interaction wrench experienced at the human extremities (such as hands), where the feasibility of direct sensor measurements is not practical. We refer to our approach as non-collocated wrench estimation, as we aim to estimate the wrench at known contact locations but without using any direct force-torque sensor measurements at these known locations. We achieve this by extending the formulation of stochastic inverse dynamics for humans by considering a centroidal dynamics constraint to perform a reliable non-collocated estimation of interaction wrench and the joint torques (articular stress) experienced as a direct consequence of the interaction. Our approach of non-collocated estimation is thoroughly validated in terms of payload estimation and articular stress estimation through validation and experimental scenarios involving dynamic human motions like walking.

“…After the presentation of these preliminary data, a more detailed analysis of the most 10 recent articles published in journals was carried out. The criteria used to perform this more detailed analysis took into account the highest journal’s percentile presented in SCOPUS, also verifying which journal had the most recent publications about the theme (Broday, 2021). So, a qualitative analysis was performed to meet the main purpose of this research.…”

Purpose Quality has undergone several transformations over the past decades. From the inspection to total quality management (TQM), some tools have been created to improve the performance of industrial processes and services, such as control charts and Pareto’s diagram. Now, the fourth industrial revolution (4th IR), Industry 4.0, has become part of the routine of organizations and people. The purpose of this paper is to verify how traditional quality concepts are being adapted within organizations. Design/methodology/approach As the term “Quality 4.0” is still recent, this research aimed to conduct a literature review on the topic by using the systematic literature review method called Bibliometrix. Through the combination of keywords, 116 papers were found. After eliminating the repeated papers, an analysis was made with the remaining 104 papers, presenting the sources of publication, period of publication, countries, among other characteristics. Finally, a more detailed analysis of the 10 most recent papers published in journals was performed. Findings The main results of this research are: publications on the topic have increased significantly from 2013, mainly in journals and conference papers; the most important elements connected with Quality 4.0 are Quality Management and Industry 4.0; there is not yet a universal definition for Quality 4.0; however, it seems that digital tools can be used to improve the performance of processes; one can expect a natural evolution from TQM to Quality 4.0, not replacing the traditional quality methods; activities inside organizations will be faster and smarter, due to the use of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI), combined with traditional quality methods. Originality/value Identifying new approaches and gaps for quality research may improve the development of new concepts and tools.

“…It will also predict any likelihood of problems in organization that can be addressed and overcome at an early stage. The involvement of employees and management commitment are the two most important factors to consider which is needed to help employees, ergonomists and OSH staff effectively implements ergonomics in the workplace (Broday, 2020;Burgess-Limerick, 2018;Priyoko Prayitnoadi et al, 2019).…”

The involvement of various parties in making work decisions in the organization can have a positive impact. Participation in implementing ergonomics aspect among management and individual level will enable workers to serve to the conformity of the job rather than in adjusting to the environment. Hence, it will avoid emerging problems especially to the workers such low self-effacing, work pressure and job dissatisfaction, low level of health status, which eventually affects workers and organizational performance. The important of understanding the multidimensional, dynamic characteristics of participations and the potential positive and negative impact on the ergonomic work system and workers is emerging. Thus, the main agenda of article is to explore conceptually the roles of numerous participants' ergonomics approaches included examining the potential negative impact of participation. This paper systematically assesses methodologic aspects of literature reviews which references are made on related studies since 1986 to 2021. The present empirical studies and published in high-impact, peer-reviewed academic journal that indicate the significant of participatory ergonomics in the organisations has been analysis. It is also covers several studies from local and abroad context. Electronic bibliographic databases, conference proceedings, and reference registers were systematically searched to obtain relevant documents. The review described important trends in the literature, including increased attention to be given in implementing participatory ergonomics in the organisations. The review analysis were reported that focus of participants among workers improved task contents, increase quality of working life, enhance workers health, and produce accurate ergonomic workstation as well as increase productivity. Conversely, raise cost of operation, added workforce supply as well as increase workload and work pressure was contributed as adverse impact of participants. Most studies were also mentioned that the implementation of participatory ergonomics contribute to both workers and organizational in term of wellbeing and wellness. Finally, the rules as 'participant's approaches in organization are essential for employees and the organization to achieve foster quality performance. Further empirical study is required on the implementation of participatory ergonomic as one of an initiative to improve workers capabilities and organisation competencies.
