Interactive Effects of Physical and Mental Workload: A Study of Muscle Function, Capacity and Exertion Type
… different work parameters, such as force levels, muscles employed, and types of exertion, to influence physiological responses. Furthermore, whether muscle capacity is altered with these concurrent demands remains unclear. The current research was conducted to address these needs through three …

Muscle Fatigue during Isometric and Dynamic Efforts in Shoulder Abduction and Torso Extension: Age Effects and Alternative Electromyographic Measures
… primarily to investigate age-related effects on muscle capacity (fatigue and endurance) during isometric and dynamic efforts. This work was also motivated by current theories on muscle fatigue as a potential risk factor for musculoskeletal disorders and recent demographic projections indicating a …

Design and testing of a nonlinear mechanical advantage demonstration mechanism
… methods. By allowing the full potential of the muscles to be used, the mechanism achieves a work output per repetition that approaches the maximum theoretical work.

Localized Muscle Fatigue: Theoretical and Practical Aspects in Occupational Environments
Localized muscle fatigue (LMF) is a complex, multifactorial phenomenon that involves exercise-induced decrements in the ability to generate force or power. LMF can adversely affect performance and may increase the risk of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), and is thus of contemporary …
