Prabir Mukhopadhyay,Amaltas Khan +1 more
TL;DR: The study indicates that most tasks for meat cutters fall in the high-risk category for occupational injury and suggests that ergonomic interventions that address retooling and workstation and process redesign would be useful in reducing the number of injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of upper arm articulations on shoulder-arm discomfort profile in a pronation task
TL;DR: A supplementary experiment showed that in some of the deviated postures combinations the subjects required additional muscle force to achieve the 20% MVC from the original testing posture, which can be helpful for designing workplaces and developing biomechanical models, especially for assessment of designs in virtual environments.
