Environmental Ergonomics: Principles, Methods, and Applications provides the philosophy, principles and application of environmental ergonomics as a universal concept and considers total environments as an integration of environmental factors to which people are exposed.

The book develops the definition of environmental ergonomics and presents the principles, methods and application of knowledge in the areas of human response to heat and cold, sound, vibration, light and air quality and addresses diverse environments and people. The title explains the effects of the environment on the health, comfort and performance of people for all environmental components, introduces environmental ergonomics as a universal subject and offers general principles and methods for measuring and representing the environment and its effects. A wide range of case studies demonstrates the application of the subject for all environmental components and for integrated environments. Special environments such as vehicles and unique populations such as people with disabilities, are considered in the book. The title concludes with an in-depth understanding of total environments with a description of how to conduct an environmental ergonomics survey and a case study.

An ideal read for any professional or student interested in environmental ergonomics, including architects, occupational hygienists, interior designers, systems engineers, civil engineers, HVAC engineers and building services engineers.
