Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Mechanical loading of the low back and shoulders during pushing and pulling activities

Notes: The objective of this study was to quantify the mechanical load on the low back and shoulders during punish and pulling in combination with three task constrains.The use of two or three hands, three cart weights, and two handle heights. The second objective was to explore the relation between the initial and sustained exerted forces and the mechanical load on the low back and shoulders. The results of this study appeared to be useful to estimate ergonomics consequences of interventions in the working constraints during punish and pullingRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 47, nº 1, January 2004 ; p.1-18Materia / lugar / evento: Trabajo físico Biomecánica Ergonomía Estudios Fuerza física Otros autores: Hoozemans, Marco J.M.
