In the last three decades it has become quite common to evaluate local muscle fatigue by
means of surface electromyographic (sEMG) signal processing. A large number of studies …

The surface electromyography (sEMG) records the electrical activity of muscle fibers during
contraction: one of its uses is to assess changes taking place within muscles in the course of …

This lecture explores the various uses of surface electromyography in the field of
biomechanics. Three groups of applications are considered: those involving the activation …

We aimed to determine if any mechanistic differences exist between a single set (1SET) and
multiple sets (ie 3 sets; 3SET) of resistance exercise by utilizing a primed constant infusion …

A model is proposed in which the development of physical exhaustion is a relative rather
than an absolute event and the sensation of fatigue is the sensory representation of the …

Skeletal muscle operates as a near-constant volume system; as such muscle shortening
during contraction is transversely linked to radial deformation. Therefore, to assess …

Surface myoelectric signals often appear to carry more information than what is resolved in
root mean square analysis of the progress curves or in its power spectrum. Time-frequency …

Study Design. A randomized study comparing the results of active rehabilitation and passive
control treatment in patients with chronic low back pain with follow-up at 6 months and 1 …

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of gender on changes in
electromyographic (EMG) signal characteristics of the quadriceps muscles with increasing …

Electrical stimulation of the nervous system is attracting increasing attention because of the
possibilities it offers for physiological investigations, clinical diagnosis, muscle function …
