Objective assessment of motor fatigue in multiple sclerosis: the Fatigue index Kliniken Schmieder (FKS) [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, 2014 Fatigue is a common and frequently disabling symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to develop the Fatigue index Kliniken Schmieder (FKS) for detecting motor fatigue in patients with MS using kinematic gait analysis. The FKS relies on the chaos theoretical term "attractor", which, if unchanged, is a necessary and sufficient ...

Index Finger Muscle Fatigue and Pistol Firing Failure
Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 2019 Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze finger strength and effects of muscle fatigue on the ability to shoot. Background: The finger and hand muscles of soldiers are subject to high loads. For example, the trigger pull of military pistols can amount up to 58 N (≈6 kg) and could cause muscle fatigue in the trigger finger. For soldiers, however,
