Effects of Working Environment Factors and Operator Experience on Upper Extremity Mechanical Properties During Powered Hand Tool Use
IIE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors, 3(2), 81–90.
TL;DR:
The mechanical properties of the upper extremity were identified, which represent muscle capacity to react to an impulsive power tool torque loading and affect the responsive hand displacement, and can be used to predict hand displacement during powered hand-tool use.

author keywords: Gait; Aging; Coordination; Variability; Stair negotiation
MeSH headings : Acceleration; Accidental Falls; Adult; Aged; Aging / physiology; Female; Gait / physiology; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Psychomotor Performance; Reference Values; Walking / physiology; Young Adult
TL;DR:
The findings suggest that normal aging adults have less independent control of adjacent joints compared to younger adults suggesting they have less flexibility to modulate inter-joints coordination appropriately during stair walking transitions.
