12. Work Physiology
 MUSCLE STRUCTURE AND METABOLISM
 Muscle Structure
 primary function – generate force and produce movement
 smooth muscle – digestion of food and regulation of the internal environment – no conscious
control
 cardiac muscle – no conscious control
 skeletal muscle – the largest tissue in the body – 40% of body weight
 direct conscious control, physical work possible
 muscle fibers>myofibrils>sarcomeres (fig 12.1)
 sarcomeres – myosin and actin
 the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction
 Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism
 Phosphorylation – from ATP and CP to create high energy phosphate compounds through
aerobic and anaerobic metabolism (fig 12.2)
 Anaerobic
A. Phosphagen (ATP - CP) System
1. ATP  ADP + P + Energy
2. CP  C + P + Energy (rebound ADP and P to ATP)
고려대학교 산업공학과

B. Anaerobic Glycolysis System – oxygen debt, not efficient
1. Glucose (C6H12O6)n  Lactic acid (2C3H6O3) + Energy
2. Energy + 3ADP + 3P  3ATP
 Aerobic Reaction – steady state
1. C16H32O2 (carbohydrates and fatty acids) + 23O2  16CO2 + 16H2O + Energy
2. 130 ADP + 130P + Energy  130ATP
 THE CIRCULATORY AND RESPIRATORY SYSTEMS
 The Circulatory System
 The Blood
 8% of body weight
 red blood cells
 transport oxygen and remove carbon dioxide
 formed in bone marrow and carries the Hb
 white blood cells – fight germs and defend the body against infections
 platelets (혈소판) – stop bleeding
 Plasma – 90% water 10% nutrients and solutes
 The Structure of the Cardiovascular Systems
 the heart – four-chambered (atrium and ventricle, atrioventricular valves) – fig 12.3
 arteries and veins (one-way valves)
고려대학교 산업공학과
IMEN 368 인간공학 II
 the systemic circulation
 the left ventricle  aorta  arteries  arterioles  capillaries
 venules  veins  superior vena cava (inferior v.c.)  the right atrium
 the pulmonary circulation (oxygenation)
 the right ventricle  pulmonary arteries to the lung  arterioles  capillaries
 venules  veins  pulmonary veins  the left artium
 Blood Flow and Distribution
 the resistance to flow – blood vessel’s radius and length
 systolic pressure – the maximum arterial pressure
 diastolic pressure – the minimum
 arterioles are the major source to blood flow
 cardiac output (Q) – the amount of blood pumped out of the left ventricle per minute
 influenced by physiological, environmental, psychological, individual factors
 5 L/min for rest to 25 L/min for heavy work
 to increase the cardiac output -- increase HR or stroke volume (SV)
 Q (L/min) = HR (beats/min) * SV (L/beat)
고려대학교 산업공학과
IMEN 368 인간공학 II
 The Respiratory System
 The Structure of the Respiratory System
 the nose, pharynx (인두), larynx (후두), trachea (기관), bronchi (기관지)
 lungs – alveoli (200 mil to 600 mil)
 alveolar ventilation – the amount of gas exchange per min. in the alveoli
 the muscles of the chest, diaphragm
 Lung Capacity
 total lung capacity (fig. 12.4)
 minute ventilation (volume) – tidal volume x frequency
 increasing the tidal volume is more efficient than increasing the breathing frequency
 ENERGY COST OF WORK AND WORKLOAD ASSESSMENT
 Energy Cost of Work
 basal metabolism – the lowest level of energy expenditure to maintain life; a resting person
under dietary restrictions for several days and no food intake for 12 hours – 1600 to 1800
kcal/day or 1 kcal/kg/hour
 2400 kcal/day for basal metabolism and leisure and low-intensity everyday nonworking
activities
 Working metabolism (metabolic cost of work) – increase in metabolism from the resting to
the working level
 metabolic or energy expenditure rate during physical activity = working metabolism rate
(metabolic cost of work) + basal metabolism rate – fig. 12.5
고려대학교 산업공학과
IMEN 368 인간공학 II
 physical demand of work
 Light – smaller than 2.5 kcal/min – oxidative metabolism
 Moderate – 2.5 to 5.0 kcal/min – oxidative metabolism
 Heavy – 5.0 to 7.5 kcal/min – only physically fit workers through oxidative metabolism,
oxygen deficit incurred at the start of work cannot be repaid until the end of the work
 very heavy ( 7.5 to 10 kcal/min), extremely heavy (greater than 10 kcal/min) – even
physically fit workers cannot reach a steady state condition during the period of work –
oxygen deficit and lactic acid accumulation
 Measurement of Workload
 Physiological and subjective methods
 energy expenditure rate is linearly related to the oxygen consumption rate and to HR
 Oxygen Consumption
 Energy expenditure rate (kcal/min) = 4.8 kcal/liter * oxygen consumption rate (l/min)
 Oxygen consumption = aerobic metabolism during work + anaerobic metabolism during
recovery
 static work not well reflected in O2 measure
 Heart Rate
 indirect measure of energy expenditure, not as reliable as O2 consumption rate
 resting HR – 60 to 80 beats/min
 increase from the resting to the steady state is a measure of physical workload
 max HR = 206 – (0.62*age)
 max HR = 220 – age
고려대학교 산업공학과
IMEN 368 인간공학 II
 Blood Pressure and Minute Ventilation
 BP -- not used as often as O2 consumption and HR but more accurate for awkward static
posture
 minute ventilation (minute volume) – the amount of air breathed out per minute –
measured in conjunction with O2 consumption and used as an index of emotional stress
 Subjective Measurement of Workload
 Borg RPE (Ratings of Perceived Exertion) Scale of 6 to 20 (beats/min)
 PHYSICAL WORK CAPACITY AND WHOLE-BODY FATIGUE
 Short-Term and Long-Term Work Capacity
 Physical work capacity -- a person’s maximum rate of energy production during physical work
 the short-term maximum physical work capacity (MPWC) or aerobic capacity – VO2max – heart
cannot beat faster and the cardiovascular system cannot supply oxygen – 15kcal/min for healthy
male and 10 kcal/min for healthy female
 long-term maximum physical work capacity
 for continuous dynamic work, 5 kcal/min for male and 3.5 kcal/min for female
 Causes and Control of Whole-Body Fatigue
 experienced whole-body fatigue around 30 to 40% of maximum aerobic capacity
 certainly feel fatigued if the energy cost exceeds 50% of the aerobic capacity because the body
cannot reach the “steady state”
고려대학교 산업공학과
IMEN 368 인간공학 II
 Causes of fatigue  Accumulation of lactic acid in prolonged heavy work but not found with
prolonged moderate work; depletion of ATP and CP, symptom of disease or poor health
 engineering methods to reduce the risk of whole-body fatigue – redesign the job and provide job
aids
 administrative methods(work-rest scheduling) without heat stress
 rest period = (PWC – Ejob)/(Erest – E job)
 with heat stress
 Static Work and Local Muscle Fatigue
 Static muscle contractions impede or even occlude blood flow to the working muscles
 Rohmert curve – the relationship between endurance and %MVC
 EMG and psychophysical scales
 Engineering and Administrative methods
