Cormic Index Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Cormic Index (CI) is:

$CI = \frac{H^2}{W}$

Where:

$CI$ is the Cormic Index
$H$ is the Height (cm)
$W$ is the Weight (kg)

What is a Cormic Index?

A Cormic Index, also known as sitting height ratio, is a measure used in anthropometry to determine the proportion of a person’s total height that is due to their torso. It is calculated by dividing the sitting height by the total height, both measured in the same units. This index is used in various fields such as ergonomics, nutritional assessment, and growth studies.

Example

Let's say the height (H) is 170 cm, and the weight (W) is 70 kg. Using the formula:

$CI = \frac{170^2}{70} \approx 412.86$

So, the Cormic Index (CI) is approximately 412.86.
