Hi, my name is Alessia Fucito, from team 24. Nice to meet you J. A. L. Geere et al. (2010), a study showing how manually carrying water containers can impose physical loads that increase musculoskeletal disorders, with implications for elderly health. (https://doi.org/10.1186/1476-069x-9-52)
Ergonomic intervention for manual load carrying on the head / harness design -> A. Kumar (2021), describes the development of a harness/system that reduces spinal load during weight transport, avoiding “direct back loading.” (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ergon.2021.103126)
Musculoskeletal health and safety of aged workers in manual handling works-> Azizur Rahman, analyzes musculoskeletal risks associated with manual handling of weights by older adults and proposes a framework for aging-friendly design. (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/362428038_Musculoskeletal_health_and_safety_of_aged_workers_in_manual_handling_works)
Ergonomic investigation of a load carrying task during stair climbing -> Experimental study analyzing back load when carrying water bottles on stairs, evaluating workload with different ergonomic methods. (https://digitalarchive.library.bogazici.edu.tr/items/e50a5721-61e2-4452-8e5b-0fa1d2b29be3)
An Innovative Solution for Stair Climbing: Tri‑Wheeled Motorized Trolley -> H. J. H. Oh et al. (2025), a design project for a foldable, motorized three-wheeled trolley to facilitate carrying heavy loads on stairs. Could be concrete inspiration for design solutions. (https://doi.org/10.3390/inventions10040057)
A review of stairway falls and stair negotiation -> J. V. Jacobs et al. (2016), examines potential design interventions (structural modifications, surfaces, handrails) to make stair ascent/descent safer. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0966636216301096?via%3Dihub)
Stair Design and User Interaction -> A. Koutamanis (2024), architectural analysis of stairs: how step shape (height, depth) influences perceived risk and usability, and how to design more “affordable” and safe stairs. (https://www.mdpi.com/2673-8945/4/3/36)
Human Factors Considerations in Design for the Elderly -> Study on ergonomics and human factors for older adults, helping understand their physical limitations and how design can reduce load and improve safety. (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/361247598_Human_Factors_Considerations_in_Design_for_the_Elderly).
Have a nice day and good luck <3

Good. It would be better if you could provide any contact information or communication ways to Team 21~
