The Impact of Ergonomic Guiding Principles on the Formation of Modern Monumental Art
PublicationCommemoration of historic events is now a commonplace phenomenon both in culture and in academic research. The phenomenon is linked to an increase in the representation of the visualisation of the past in public sphere, which in turn leads to reformulation of monumental art. Modern monuments are often spatial forms consisting both of sculpture installation and bigger constructions. In case of these realisations, the designers,...

Ergonomic Aspects of Development of Architecture in the Context of Sanitary and Hygiene Safety
PublicationAbstract Ergonomics answers the need of safe development of space by creating spatial forms which help to implement the safety procedures and limit the threats involved both in ordinary use of the spaces and in case of unforeseen events. Using the knowledge of ergonomics and architecture on the basis of defining the routes of germ transmission, allows to limit the spread of those organisms. Ergonomics of developing architectural...

Ergonomiczne aspekty bezpieczeństwa w architekturze
PublicationJednym z podstawowych zadań architektury jako sztuki organizacji przestrzeni jest zapewnienie bezpieczeństwa człowiekowi w jego środowisku zamieszkania, pracy i wypoczynku. Planowanie budynków związane jest odpowiedzialnością za przyszłe, prawidłowe ich użytkowanie. W procesie projektowym należy przewidzieć wszystkie możliwe zagrożenia, jakie mogą wystąpić w wyniku eksploatacji. W tym wypadku istotna jest najszersza ocena zagrożeń,...

Ergonomics as a beauty creator.
PublicationNajczęściej w nauczaniu ergonomii podkreślamy związki ergonomii z komfortem pracy. W czasach gdy człowiek opanował technologię na tyle, że zapewnienie właściwych warunków pracy jest tylko kwestią woli a nie technologii, pojawia się konieczność dostosowania wyrobu do potrzeb zmysłowych człowieka. W pracy wskazano, że takie elementy jak piękno, elegancja, estetyka czy wygoda eksploatacji wyrobu mogą być zapewnione lub wręcz możliwe...

Organisational methods in teaching ergonomics
PublicationCivilisation generates many problems connected with job, which cannot be resolved by one field of science that deals with matters fragmentarily, only from its own point of view. Ergonomics, i.e. synthetic knowledge about job, can solve these problems by using the resources of many fields, e.g. physiology, psychology, technical science or economy. The achievements of these fields are used in ergonomics and thus problems connected...
