A study was conducted to determine how the position of the handwheel affected the amount of torque applied by an operator. Data were collected at a series of wheel heights and distances. Results indicate that the main effects of gender, wheel height, and wheel distance, and the interaction between gender and wheel distance were statistically significant. No practical differences in torque production among the 5 wheel heights used in this investigation were found. A strong correlation existed between torque production capability and a handwheel height of 101.6 cm and weight of the male participants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
