Master's thesis of Engineering: Investigation of Localized Muscle Fatigue

The objective of this research is to study the effect of onset of physical fatigue/stress during isometric and dynamic contractions based on the changes in physiological signal i.e. SEMG. Therefore, the intention of this present investigation is to assess the repeatability of common muscle fatigue measures, including amplitude and spectral measures of EMG and further, to determine the adequacy of different measures in detection of onset of localized muscle fatigue.
