    Sammanfattning : Work-related disorders due to biomechanical exposures have been subject to extensive research. Studies addressing these exposures have, however, paid limited attention to an efficient use of resources in exposure assessment. The present thesis investigates cost-efficient procedures for assessment of work-related biomechanical exposures, i.e. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Biomechanical analyses of flywheel resistance exercise : From a space- and ground-based perspective

    Sammanfattning : Astronauts suffer degradation of postural muscles and weight-bearing bones during long-duration spaceflight. Resistance exercise is used as a primary countermeasure against these degradations. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Physical workload in surgery : from risk assessments to interventions

    Författare :Xuelong Fan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Surgeons often suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), with the neck, shoulders, and low back being the most affected body sites. Among other factors, the high physical workload has been recognized as a major risk factor contributing to the high occurrence of WMSDs. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Ergonomic evaluation of technology change at work and its effect on health

    Författare :Montakarn Chaikumarn; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk psykologi; Engineering Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : The change at work in the context of technology change has affected human’s health in relation to their working condition, attitude, and MSDs risk factors. These changes were included: adopting new tools, work concept work environments, and work system. LÄS MER
