However, this strictly mechanical approach does not allow scientists to assess the importance of each component in relation to the complete system, and thus it lacks integration. The ...

Determination and integration of force requirements is an essential component of designing tools ... more Determination and integration of force requirements is an essential component of designing tools and workstations that involve the use of the hand and fingers. This study investigated the feasibility of circumventing direct force measurements through the use of linear models to ...

This study explored construction workers' self-reports of postural stability upon standing after working in different postures. One hundred and eighty-nine workers in 10 construction trades provided ...

Thirty-one participants ranging in age from 18-67 years old performed walking trials at ...

This study investigated the effects of postural demands, visual cues, and mental activity on objective measures of ...

Available data in the literature has primarily focused on whole-hand or multi-digit pinch exertions. The present study compiled and examined ...
