Fatiguing cognitive and physical exertions have been shown to negatively affect subsequent task performance. However, it is not clearly understood if concurrent physical and cognitive effort may exaggerate the negativ...
Background:
Understanding upper extremity strength symmetry can have important implications for ergonomics assessment and design. Few studies have examined isometric joint strength symmetry of left-handed individuals, or examined how handedness can influence strength. As such, the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of handednes...
Upper-limb exoskeletons are gaining traction in industrial work environments. However, other than advertised general specifications (e.g., peak support angle), the support torque provided throughout the reach envelope is largely unknown to end users. As such, this paper describes a methodology for measuring the specific supportive torque provided b...
