Optimizing learning comfort: ergonomic influences on children's transition to online education.

The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated the implementation of lockdown measures, resulting in children attending classes from their homes through online platforms. This study aimed to examine the impact of studying at home on children by investigating various aspects related to their study environment. Data were gathered through two questionnaires administered in Jordan: One targeted children aged 8-15 year through interviews, while the other targeted parents with at least one school-aged child through an online survey.

Symmetry of gamma distribution data about the mean after processing with EWMA function.

Statistical Process Control (SPC) plays a vital role in maintaining quality and reducing variability in manufacturing processes. Among SPC techniques, the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) stands out for its ability to detect small process shifts quickly, making it a valuable tool in ensuring product consistency and preventing quality issues. EWMA constructs control charts to monitor process mean shifts, tracks product/service quality by identifying variations, and monitors manufacturing process parameters for early detection of deviations and necessary adjustments.

The influence of human resource management practices on occupational health and safety in the manufacturing industry.

This study provides an overview of the influence of applying two human resource management (HRM) practices on workers' occupational health and safety (OHS). These practices are selection and recruitment, and development and training. Furthermore, this study highlights the observed activities to define hazards, processes and OHS measures in the manufacturing industries.

Analyzing the invisibility angles formed by vehicle blind spots to increase driver's field of view and traffic safety.

A driver's field of view is an essential requirement for decreasing traffic crashes and increasing safety. This article improves driver safety by analyzing factors that affect the invisibility angles formed by a vehicle's A and B pillars. An experiment was conducted with 117 participants.

Evaluation of overhead guide sign sheeting materials to increase visibility and safety for drivers.

Overhead guide sign visibility must increase to improve driver safety on roadways. Two methods increase overhead guide sign visibility: sign illumination and use of retroreflective sheeting materials. This paper compares three types of retroreflective sheeting: Engineering Grade (type I), Diamond Grade (type XI), and High Intensity (type IV).
