Notes: Sumario: The effect of friction and load on pinch force was studied in a simple hand transfer task using a repeated measures design and ten men. Results suggest that the use of tool handle friction enhancements may reduce required pinch forces for objects requiring upwards of 50% or more of maximum pinch strenthRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 38, nº 12, December 1995 ; p. 2447-2454Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Dinamometría Fuerza muscular Extremidades superiores Manipulación Herramientas Otros autores: Armstrong, Thomas J.
