Neither may it be extraordinary that one such new system is discovered independently by two different authors. It seems however, to be a rare accident, indeed, if

Assessing low-back loading during lifting using personalized electromyography-driven trunk models and NIOSH-based risk levels

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Workplace injury risk due to physically demanding tasks (e.g., repeated lifting) is currently assessed using ergonomic guidelines. The Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (RNLE) is a commonly used approach that assesses risk of low-back loading during ...
