2008 article

On the existence of symmetric chain decompositions in a quotient of the Boolean lattice

Jiang, Z., & Savage, C. D. (2009, September 6). DISCRETE MATHEMATICS, Vol. 309, pp. 5278–5283.

By: Z. Jiang* & C. Savage*

author keywords: Symmetric chain decompositions; Necklaces; Quotients of the Boolean lattice
TL;DR: In this note it is described how it suffices to focus on subposets induced by necklaces with periodic block codes, substantially reducing the size of the problem. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

The effect of a knee support on the biomechanical response of the low back

JOURNAL OF APPLIED BIOMECHANICS, 23(4), 275–281.

By: Y. Shu n, Z. Jiang n, X. Xu n & G. Mirka n

author keywords: lumbar; EMG; kneeling
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / physiology; Adult; Back / physiology; Biomechanical Phenomena / methods; Female; Humans; Knee Joint / physiology; Lifting; Lumbar Vertebrae / physiology; Male; Muscle Contraction / physiology; Muscle, Skeletal / physiology; Postural Balance / physiology; Stress, Mechanical; Weight-Bearing / physiology
TL;DR: The results showed that the knee support device had no effect on the activation levels of the sampled muscles, indicating that the loss of the degree of freedom from the ankle joint during the kneeSupport condition had no impact on trunk extensor muscle response. (via Semantic Scholar)

2006 journal article

Effects of age on muscle activity and upper body kinematics during a repetitive forearm supination task

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL ERGONOMICS, 36(11), 951–957.

By: Z. Jiang n, Y. Shu n, J. Drum n, S. Reid n & G. Mirka n

author keywords: age; supination torque; electromyography; upper extremity kinematics; Baltimore Therapeutic Equipment Work Simulator; manual screwdriver
TL;DR: Empirical evidence is provided that age alone does not have a consistent impact on biomechanical responses during physically demanding work tasks. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

A study of lifting tasks performed on laterally slanted ground surfaces

ERGONOMICS, 48(7), 782–795.

By: Z. Jiang n, G. Shin n, J. Freeman n, S. Reid n & G. Mirka n

author keywords: asymmetric lifting; surface angle; biomechanical model; slant; slope; slip
MeSH headings : Adult; Biomechanical Phenomena; Electromyography; Female; Humans; Lifting; Male; Posture; Task Performance and Analysis; United States; Weight-Bearing
TL;DR: The results of the dynamic lifting tasks revealed a consistent reduction in the peak dynamic L5/S1 moment and an increase in the instability producing lateral forces with increasing slant angle, providing quantitative insight into the response of the human lifter under these adverse lifting conditions.
