摘要

Workspace design can often dictate the muscular efforts required to perform work, impacting injury risk. Within many environments, industrial workers often use sub-maximal forces in offset directions in to accomplish job tasks. The purpose of this research was to develop methods to estimate shoulder muscle activation during seated, static, sub-maximal exertions in off-axis (non-cardinal) directions. Surface EMG signals were recorded from 14 upper extremity muscles in 20 right-handed university aged, right-handed males (age: 22 +/- 3 years, weight: 77.5 +/- 11.1 kg, height 179.0 +/- 7.0 cm) participated in this study. Each participant performed 60 submaximal exertions (40N) directed at 4 off-axis phase angles of 45 degrees (45 degrees, 135 degrees, 225 degrees, and 315 degrees) in 3 planes (frontal, sagittal, and transverse) in 5 hand locations within a right handed reach envelope. The influence of hand location and force direction on muscle activity was evaluated with a forced-entry stepwise regression model. The ability of previously published on-axis prediction equations to predict muscle activity during these off-axis exertions was also evaluated. Within each muscle, activity levels were affected by both hand location and three-dimensional force direction and activation levels ranged from <1 to 37 %MVE. For each force direction there were 75 predictive equations selected and used, and the specific equation that best predicted activation depended on the muscle, exertion direction and hand location evaluated. This work assists ergonomic workplace design to minimize muscle demands during commonly performed off-axis exertions. These estimated demands can be employed to improve workplace design to reduce workplace injuries and enhance worker productivity.
