9501654 The goal of this research is to develop engineering design criteria that will assist in modifying industrial tasks and environments to allow the inclusion of persons with disabilities. Specifically, the following objectives are pursued: (1) develop engineering criteria for designing occupational tasks and environment to accommodate persons with disability, (2) cmntribute to research efforts aimed at designing occupational environments to accommodate disabled persons, (3) assist in increasing the number of qualified engineers available to transfer and implement the findings from the research in industrial settings or work places. The research will identify various strategies, survey tools, and analysis techniques that can be readily used in an industrial setting. These parameters will then be evaluated and validated in an industrial setting for possible inclusion in the design methodology. One of the tangible outcomes of the research is the development of an intelligent computer based system to assist in making decisions associated with designing and retrofitting work tasks and work places to accommodate disabled persons. Paraplegic and the visually impaired constitute the core group on which the research is targeted. Several benefits can be ascribed to this research if it becomes successful. The impact on the national economy can be significant as many more people with physical disabilities can enter the workforce and contribute to the productivity of the country. Many people with disabilities will experience economic gains, and gains in the sense of security from workplace hazards and injuries resulting from very poor systems design. The research outcome can advance the state-of-knowledge in accommodating the needs of the disabled. This will lead to the production of design standards for tools and workplaces that will not only benefit disabled persons but also the entire general population.

9501654这项研究的目的是制定工程设计标准，该标准将有助于修改工业任务和环境，以允许包含残疾人。 具体而言，实现了以下目标：（1）制定工程标准，用于设计职业任务和环境以适应残疾人，（2）CMNTRIBUTE用于研究旨在设计职业环境以适应残疾人的研究工作，（3）协助增加增加的工作。可以在工业环境或工作场所转移和实施研究结果的合格工程师数量。 该研究将确定可以在工业环境中容易使用的各种策略，调查工具和分析技术。 然后，将在工业环境中评估和验证这些参数，以将可能包含在设计方法中。 该研究的切实结果之一是开发基于智能计算机的系统，以帮助制定与设计和改造工作任务和工作场所相关的决策，以容纳残疾人。 截瘫和视力障碍构成了针对研究的核心组。 如果这项研究成功，可以将几个好处归因于这项研究。 对国民经济的影响可能会很大，因为越来越多的身体残障人士可以进入劳动力，并促进该国的生产力。 许多残疾人将经历经济增长，并在系统设计非常差的工作场所危害和伤害方面的安全意义上获得收益。 研究成果可以提高知识来满足残疾人的需求。 这将导致为工具和工作场所的设计标准制定，这些工具和工作场所不仅使残疾人受益，而且将使整个普通人群受益。
