I've been thinking about creating some shoes that actually don't harm (and most importantly, lethally harm) insects when stepping on them, do they exist already? A pattern of sole that reduces the area of contact (Easiest, least effective) Foam (i've tried to do some calculations and I failed) Little silicone or velcro hairs (so that the insects get in between them) Suction pads, air-in-sole or any other mechanism that would push or pull ants by air currents created when stepping or a moving foot Is it physically possible? Which option sounds the most likely to be effective? submitted by ..read more

Left foot has a tender spot at the ball in the center below the second and third toes. Foot doctor says there is nothing wrong, but I can tell it has changed the way my body moves and shifts weight, and I think it could be contributing to the back pain on that same side. Once a year I experience a seemingly random day without pain, but cannot decode the conditions which cause it. I've tried magnesium supplements. Sometimes they offer relief, other times it makes it all worse. Massage is the same way. I am trying to focus on strengthening legs, glutes and core muscles. I think it could largely ..read more

Hello, I have a mechanism that has a foot pedal on its bottom. The user will press this pedal with their foot while standing. My target audience is women in their 50s-60s and not working out. So they have to press this pedal neither exerting too much force nor using their body weight. I searched some ergonomics literature and only found things like pedal pressure force of drivers or cyclists. I couldn't find anything regarding my problem's conditions. How can I calculate the force they can produce under these conditions? How can I advance in this situation? submitted by /u/Mrhappyrulez [visi ..read more

I want to evaluate the relationship between pen dimensions and the strain generated on wrist and arm muscles while writing. Which ergonomic tests should I conduct? I am thinking of using EMG muscle sensors for measuring muscle stress. But placing it on the lower side of the arm (where majority strain occurs) would not be comfortable for the test subject. This would ultimately change his natural writing posture and will not provide accurate data points. What could I solve this challenge? submitted by /u/Comprehensive-Ad1072 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
