Anthropometry is critical for product and workplace design. Highly prevalent, office work is associated with sedentarism and physical discomfort due to prolonged sitting. Dynamic seating (alternating across sitting, perching, and standing) has been suggested as an alternative to overcome those problems. The current study tested a large sample of anthropometric data for mismatch levels against national and international office furniture standards using dynamic seating as a framework with traditional and perching mismatch equations, applied to three recommended dynamic seating components. Dimensions present in the standards used did not match the majority of the sample. For sitting, seat width and depth individually presented the lowest levels of match, as well as under cumulative fit of all office furniture dimensions. However, these were alleviated when incorporating adjustability. Perching was shown to be generally impeded given commercially-available chair height options. Limitations in state-of-the-art perching equations are discussed, and two new models are proposed as design alternatives. Further research should focus on testing the criteria presented in this research through discomfort and objective measures.

失配方程在动态座椅设计中的应用

人体测量学对于产品和工作场所设计至关重要。由于长时间坐着,办公室工作与久坐不动和身体不适有关,这是非常普遍的。动态座椅(交替坐着、栖息和站立)已被建议作为克服这些问题的替代方法。目前的研究使用动态座椅作为具有传统和栖息不匹配方程的框架,根据国家和国际办公家具标准测试了大量人体测量数据的失配水平,应用于三个推荐的动态座椅组件。所用标准中的尺寸与大部分样品不匹配。对于坐姿,座椅宽度和深度分别呈现最低匹配水平,以及所有办公家具尺寸的累积适合度。然而,加入可调节性后,这些问题得到了缓解。考虑到商业上可获得的椅子高度选项,栖息通常会受到阻碍。讨论了最先进的栖息方程的局限性,并提出了两种新模型作为设计替代方案。进一步的研究应侧重于通过不适和客观措施来测试本研究中提出的标准。
