Manual materials handling (MMH) account for approximately $15.0 billion of injuries cost in the United States alone. Because of the need to establish manual handling guidelines, different approaches to achieve this goal were pursued. Such approaches are based on biomechanics, work physiology, and psychophysics. In order to better understand the MMH system's behavior, models were developed. These models can be divided into biomechanical models, physiological models, psychophysically based capacity models, safe load handling models, and simulation models. This paper will present a sample of these models and discusses their advantages and disadvantages.
仅在美国，人工搬运（MMH）造成的伤害成本就约为150亿美元。由于需要制定人工搬运指南，人们采用了不同的方法来实现这一目标。这些方法基于生物力学、工作生理学和心理物理学。为了更好地理解MMH系统的行为，人们开发了一些模型。这些模型可分为生物力学模型、生理模型、基于心理物理学的能力模型、安全负荷搬运模型和模拟模型。本文将介绍这些模型的一个样本，并讨论它们的优缺点。
