A biomechanical analysis of anterior load carriage

Article Abstract:

The low back mechanisms during front load carriage activities are explored and the effects of load height and walking speed on trunk muscle activity and trunk posture are examined. The results provide insight into muscle activation patterns in dynamic settings, especially (load) carrying biomechanics, and have implications in industrial settings that require workers to carry loads on front of their bodies.

Perceptions of temperature, moisture and comfort in clothing during environmental transients

Article Abstract:

The psychological mechanisms of the perception temperature and moisture sensations in clothing during environmental transients are investigated. Analysis was carried out to study the relationship between psychological perceptions of temperature and moisture and the objectively measured skin fabric temperatures and relative in clothing microclimate.
