Sažetak
A total of 25 anthropological measures were taken from a sample of 68 female students of Zagreb University, up to 29 years of age, from all parts of Croatia, central 90 % of which were determined by using calculated amounts for 5 and 95 percentiles. Arithmetic mean and harmonic mean of body ratios hi/h and functional dependence hi=f(h) for individual anthropometric measures hi in relation to the standing body height h were also determined. Presented research is only a smaller part of a larger scale research. Calculated arithmetic mean of female students body ratios hi/h will be compared with results of many simultaneous researches for other populations of respondents such us: male engine drivers from Croatia for all age groups, male and female tram drivers from Zagreb for all age groups and male students of Zagreb University up to 29 years of age. A hypothesis of calculated arithmetic mean of body ratios hi/h of different groups of respondents dependent on age, gender, demographic and socioeconomic factors, with the possibility for using results and /or simplified calculation method during the design of driver's cab in new trams and trains custom for Croatia market, will be researched.
