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

The effect of a repetitive, fatiguing lifting task on horizontal ground reaction forces

JOURNAL OF APPLIED BIOMECHANICS, 21(3), 260–270.

By: Y. Shu n, J. Drum n, S. Southard n, G. Shin n & G. Mirka n

author keywords: slip; agriculture; lumbar injury
MeSH headings : Accidental Falls / prevention & control; Adult; Back / physiology; Back Injuries / prevention & control; Biomechanical Phenomena; Fatigue; Female; Humans; Male; Muscle, Skeletal / physiology; Occupations; Task Performance and Analysis; Weight Lifting / physiology
TL;DR: Evaluating the effects of lifting-induced fatigue of the low back extensors on lifting kinematics and ground reaction forces indicates significant increases in the magnitude of the peak anterior/posterior and peak lateral shear forces with increasing time into the lifting bout.
