Automatic All-Terrain Vehicle Crash Detection
All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) incidents are a major cause of injury and death in the United States (U.S.). This study aimed at developing and testing a low-cost device that automatically detects a rollover crash and immediately alerts EMS, even when the rider is unable to act, and there is no cellular service available.
A Design Tool To Estimate Maximum Acceptable Manual Arm Forces For Above-Shoulder Work
Above-shoulder work is associated with increased risk for shoulder fatigue and injuries. A new tool is developed that estimates maximum acceptable manual arm forces for work at or above shoulder height. The tool can be used to design acceptable above-shoulder work so that it can be accomplished by most workers.
