Eye movement data and flight performance data were measured at the following hours: 11:00, 15:00, 04:00, 11:00, 15:00. The subjects workload and fatigue were assessed with the method of national aeronautics and space administration-task load index (NASA-TLX) and rating of perceived exertion (RPE). Eye movement indices of average pupil area, av- erage saceade amplitude and average saccade velocity decreased during the 32 h of SD and they all showed significantly change in the final SD while the index of average fixa- tion time increased in the final SD. Flight performance deteriorated during the 32 h of SD, but not significantly. The feeling of fatigue and workload reported by subjects both increased during the 32 h of SD. Daily rhythm effects on the measured indices were also found, there were a obviously change at the hour of 04:00. 32 h of SD has obvious effect on eye movement behaviors which have close relation to fatigue because of SD. The eye movement measurement can be served as a tool to continually monitor fatigue online.展开更多

China's evaluation on plateau soldier's performance mainly focuses on the valuation of physical ability.Comparatively, few attention is paid on the changes of individual neuropsychological function, which refer to the changes of soldiers' emotion, psychological activity, and cognitive function, including perception, memory, thinking ability and attention.Therefore, when setting the criterion to evaluate the performance of plateau soldiers,impacts from both neuropsychological and physical elements should be involved.展开更多

We divided the signal into several parts and then octave band method was used to calculate mean energy of each part, an equation was derived based on the relationship between the mean energy of sE MG and Borg scale. The results showed that the degree of local muscle fatigue could be described by a cubic curve, and could be used to evaluate and monitor muscle fatigue.展开更多

The study sampled data of 843 Chinese young males all over the country. Back force, hand twisting force and arm force of four different exerting directions(pull, push, adduction and abduction)were measured Comparisons were made between the results of this study and those from other documents. Different types of the strength were also compared. The factors of stature and weight influenced on muscle force were analyzed There are obvious difference of arm strength in four directions, which can be ordered as push, pull, adduction and abduction, the push force is the largest and the abduction force is the least The significant correlation exists between different types force. Weight has an obvious influence on one's force among above three factors. Chinese young males database is established at the first time. Results of the study can provide help for the ergonomists, the workers of occupation health and the researchers ofrehabilitation.展开更多
