Physics at work

Physics Bulletin, 1985
An industrialist recently commented to me that he did not think present-day physics graduates are as good as those of 15 or 20 years ago. On being asked to define 'good', he explained that he always looked on physicists as people who could get things done.

The History of Work in Physical Dysfunction

American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 1992
Work has been at the core of occupational therapy for the last seven and a half decades. The tenets of work, which include providing a way of making a living and giving meaning to one’s existence, have remained consistent throughout occupational therapists’ use of work in the treatment of physical disabilities during three eras ...

Age and Physical Work Capacity

Experimental Aging Research, 1999
Aging is associated with a progressive decrement in various components of physical work capacity, including aerobic power and capacity, muscular strength and endurance, and the tolerance of thermal stress. A part of the functional loss can be countered by regular physical activity, control of body mass, and avoidance of cigarette smoking. Nevertheless,

Physical Working Principles of Medical Radar

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2013
There has been research interest in using radar for contactless measurements of the human heartbeat for several years. While many systems have been demonstrated, not much attention have been given to the actual physical causes of why this work. The consensus seems to be that the radar senses small body movements correlated with heartbeats, but whether ...

Physical Therapy Work Schedules

Physical Therapy, 1984
The purpose of this article is to describe the results of a survey sent to the directors of 200 hospital physical therapy departments to determine the work schedules of physical therapists. The results indicated that 26 percent of the inpatient units and 76 percent of the outpatient units had work schedules of eight-hour days, Monday through Friday ...

Work satisfaction and physical health

Journal of Community Health, 1982
This analysis asks how satisfaction with one's main work role (whether that is a paid job or housework) is related to physical health. Data from a Detroit survey show that: (1) Dissatisfied people have poorer health status and take more curative health actions than do satisfied people.

Project Work in O.N.C. Physics

Physics Bulletin, 1965
Though my article was specifically aimed at the O.N.C. physics the criticism implicit or otherwise certainly extends to school physics teachers. Too little thought is given by teachers to the practical work used in schools and colleges. I am surprised that Mr. T. Axon considers very few of the 'standard' practicals to be redundant.

The Work of a Physical-Fitness Clinic

New England Journal of Medicine, 1948
THIS is a report of a physical-fitness clinic conducted at the Massachusetts headquarters of the Blue Cross among approximately 900 executives and employees. The personnel conducting the clinic consisted of one experienced physical-fitness worker; three physicians, part time, especially trained to make physical examinations to detect not only disease ...

SIMPLE INDICATORS OF PHYSICAL WORKING CAPACITY

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1995
Traditional methods used to estimate an individual's physical working capacity have at least one disadvantage in common, namely, the demand for expensive equipment such as cycle ergometers or treadmills. Consequently, the search for suitable tests performed in the field has been extensive.
