| A solid foundation in the understanding of the physical characteristics of humans and the design of artefacts and environments to match these characteristics. The anatomical structure, anthropometric variation, biomechanical modelling and physiological processes underpinning human physical capacities and limitations are explored. The consequences of appropriate and inappropriate interactions with artefacts are examined. |
