Features: This book systematically elaborates on the theory and methods of human-machine engineering design, emphasizing the dominant role of humans in the human-machine-environment system, as well as the adaptation of machines and the environment to human needs. It explores the mutual relationships and rational matching between humans and machines, humans and the environment, and machines and the environment, aiming to achieve requirements such as ease of operation, reduced effort, safety, reliability, efficiency, and comfort. The book is divided into eight chapters, covering main topics such as an introduction, human factors in human-machine systems, the design of displays and controls and their combined devices, the design of working spaces and tools, working environments, accident analysis and safety design, and comprehensive evaluation of system quality. This book can serve as a reference for engineering technicians in industrial design, mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic instruments, safety, management, light industry, and related fields, as well as a teaching reference for faculty and students in relevant disciplines at colleges and universities.
