Features: This book elaborates on the core concept and fundamental principles of human factors engineering's "human-centered" approach, analyzes the characteristics of modern maintenance, and comprehensively discusses maintenance operation error management and human factors engineering design for equipment maintainability. It provides an in-depth analysis of the causes of maintenance operation errors and intentional violations, as well as preventive measures, aiming to achieve safe, convenient, and effective maintenance. Using maintenance as an example, which is highly relevant across industries, the book closely integrates human factors engineering with operational management and equipment maintainability design, a distinctive feature of this work. In reality, both aspects are not only applicable to the maintenance field but also possess significant general applicability. The book emphasizes the explanation of fundamental concepts and practicality, making it valuable not only for maintenance designers, maintenance managers, and but also for operators, operational managers, and equipment designers across various fields. It serves as a reference for faculty and students in higher education institutions and human factors engineering researchers.
