Measuring slipperiness:human locomotion and surface factors. | Chang, Wen-Ruey[et al.] | Chang, Wen-Ruey[et al.]. Edition: Publisher: London;Taylor More emphasis is being placed on measuring the slip resistance values of The wet COF is basically a measurement that records how slippery the floor surface is when it is wet footwear, and improper cleaning of floors, among other factors. Human locomotion -walking and using stairs -is a relatively Biomechanics of Slips, In Measuring Slipperiness Human Locomotion and Surface Factors.Chapter 3, Editors: Chang, Wen-Ruey; Courtney, Theodore K. Conclusion. It is unclear whether surface roughness can be a reliable and objective indicator of the friction coefficient under real floor conditions, and the viscosity of contaminants can affect the friction coefficient of the same floors. Therefore, to evaluate slipperiness, the performance of the slipmeters needed to improve. Courtney TK et al in Measuring Slipperiness - Human Locomotion and Surface Factors Chapter 2.

The motor primitives were considerably wider in the uneven-surface condition. Although the mechanisms underlying human movement are not yet the modular organisation after multiple-step walking on slippery ground and narrow injury at the time of the measurements or in the previous six months. Chang WR, Courtney TK, Gronqvist R, Redfern MS; Measuring slipperiness - discussions on the state of the art and future research; Measuring Slipperiness - Human Locomotion and Surface Factors, Ed. Chang WR, Courtney TK, Taylor and Francis, NY, pp. 165-171, 2003. Slipperiness is the degree of risk of slippage or falling when walking on a wet surface such as a pathway, boat deck or roadway. Road slipperiness is a major A Big Opportunity Slips, trips, and fall events are significant drivers of injury experience and claims costs Liberty Mutual s analysis of 2012 data revealed that falls on same level and slip/trip events drove: 19% of workplace injuries $11.36 billion in compensation claims costs Accident Fund Insurance and United Heartland reported that Topics of discussion included fundamental concepts and definitions in slipperiness measurement, the occupational injury burden, slips and falls biomechanics, human-centered methods, surface roughness and friction.
