Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiology of upper extremity muscle disorders
Bart Visser,Jaap H. van Dieën +1 more
TL;DR: There are multiple possible mechanisms, but none of the hypotheses forms a complete explanation and is sufficiently supported by empirical data, according to a review of the literature on the pathophysiology of upper extremity muscle disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of precision demands and mental pressure on muscle activation and hand forces in computer mouse tasks.
TL;DR: Precision demands and mental pressure in aiming and tracking tasks with a computer mouse were found to coincide with increased muscle activity in some upper extremity muscles and increased force exertion on the computer mouse.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physical demands upon (Dutch) fire-fighters in relation to the maximum acceptable energetic workload
TL;DR: The conclusion was that, though the number of incidents and the occupational demands are low during 24-h shifts, the peak loads for these two tasks are energetically high and could lead to excessive fatigue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Job rotation as a factor in reducing physical workload at a refuse collecting department
TL;DR: The results indicate that the total amount of work performed by means of job rotation resulted in an overall reduced physical workload of the employees of the refuse collecting department.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of work pace on workload, motor variability and fatigue during simulated light assembly work
TL;DR: Increasing the work pace did not show adverse effects in terms of biomechanical exposures and muscle fatigue, but it did lead to more errors, which suggests that an increase in work pace might diminish production quality, even without any noticeable fatigue being experienced by the operators.
