Age-related impact of varied time constraints in an assembly task on biomechanical and physiological exertions C.5/1.049 | 2011Outline of reasons and objectives
Working under time constraints is particularly difficult for ageing workers. “Leeway” or “room for manoeuvre” may enable regulation strategies to be put in place or production contingencies to be coped with more… -
Factors of success and of failure in the process of returning to work after surgery for a work-related degenerative shoulder injury EL2015-007 | 2015Among musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) of the upper limb, work-related degenerative injuries to the tendons of the rotator cuff muscles, which stabilise the shoulder, are frequent, and particularly costly and disabling. Going back to work after…

Effect of time constraint on performance speed of a repetitive assembly task according to age C.5/1.049/C2015-097 | 2015Repetitive work at required pace, as observed on assembly lines, is often characterized by reduced amounts of temporal margin of maneuver (TMM). Various epidemiological studies have shown that working under time constraints is particularly…

Effects of artifacts in a repetitive light assembly task on muscular activity according to age and work rate constraints C.5/1.049/C2015-100 | 2015Time constraints can be particularly stressful for older workers in repetitive work. Opportunities for work rate regulation could offer a way of dealing with production variations. The aim of this laboratory study was to investigate the effects…

Exploratory study for an overall assessment of past and current constraints at work C.5/1.047 | 2010Outline of reasons and objectives
Repeated and/or prolonged exposure to physical, organisational, psychosocial, and environmental constraints at work can lead to a degradation in health. Various tools make it possible to assess such constraints… -
Ergonomic assessment of the surgeon's physical workload during standard and robotic assisted laparoscopic procedures NOETUDE/P2013-086 | 2013Standard laparoscopy is responsible for musculoskeletal problems because of surgeons anti-ergonomic positions. Robot-assisted laparoscopy seems to reduce these musculoskeletal disorders because of the surgeons seated position. The…

Increasing age of workers should be taking into account in the work station conception. It is known that functional capacities and muscle properties physiologically change with ageing. This experiment wanted to investigate motor adaptation…

Cardio-respiratory and subjective strains sustained by paraplegic subjects, when travelling on a cros slope in a manual wheelchair (MWC). NOETUDE/P2012-187 | 2014The aim of this study was to quantify cardiac, energetic and subjective strains during manual wheelchair (MWC) travel on cross slopes (Cs). 25 paraplegics achieved eight 300 m propulsion tests combining 4 Cs (0, 2, 8 and 12%) and 2 velocities (Vi = 0.97 m s-1, Vc…

Physical workload of garbage collectors in two organization modes: one loader vs. two loaders NOETUDE/C2015-080 | 2015Garbage collection is physically demanding work and is usually performed by a crew composed of one driver and two loaders (two-loader organization, “TL”). French companies have recently introduced a new work organization mode, reducing the workforce…
