    • An analysis of muscle fatigue due to complex tasks and its relation to the strain index 
      Stephens, John-Paul (2009-06-02)
      The Strain Index was originally designed to analyze mono-task jobs. An experiment using a grip dynamometer was used to simulate six multiple task jobs to study the effect of complex tasks on localized muscle fatigue and ...
    • Test re-test repeatability of the strain index 
      Stephens, John-Paul (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
      The Strain Index (SI) has repeatedly shown high levels of validity for differentiating between safe and hazardous tasks for the distal upper extremity (DUE). One limitation of the SI is the lack of reliability data. This ...
