        abstract = {The importance for flexible solutions that can suit a range of body shapes and weight ranges has been brought to light by the increased demand for ergonomic sitting. The design and structural analysis of a hybrid chair with movable seating and adjustable armrests that is intended for people weighing between 80 and 120 kg are shown in this project. For heavier users, traditional seats frequently don't offer enough support, which causes discomfort and bad posture. Our creative chair design solves this problem by including moveable seating that improves user comfort and adaptability, as well as adjustable armrests that may be adjusted for width. The structural and dynamic analysis of the chair is a primary emphasis of this study in order to guarantee its longevity, stability, and safety under a range of stress scenarios. The chair's resistance to static forces is evaluated using static structural analysis. Dynamic analysis, on the other hand, models’ actual usage situations to assess how resilient it is to changing loads and effects. Advanced simulation techniques and material testing are integrated into the design process to maximize user experience and structural integrity. This hybrid chair fills an important need in ergonomic furniture design for heavier weight categories by providing an affordable and all-inclusive solution. Personalized comfort is encouraged with the addition of flexible seating and adjustable features, which help users maintain ideal posture. This study advances our understanding of adaptive ergonomic design and opens the door to more adaptable and supportive chair options that can accommodate a range of physical requirements.},
