Age, human performance, and physical employment standards
(2016)The proportion of older workers has increased substantially in recent years, with over 25% of the Canadian labour force aged ≥55 years. Along with chronological age comes age-related declines in functional capacity associated ... -
Contribution to the design methodologies of piled raft foundations under combined loadings
(2016)Although simplified design methods for piled raft foundations have been proposed to allow for the group effect and soil-pile-raft interaction, most of them are concentrated on one type of loading, rendering the applicability ... -
The effects of different passive static stretching intensities on recovery from unaccustomed eccentric exercise – A randomized controlled trial
(2018)Effects of passive static stretching intensity on recovery from unaccustomed eccentric exercise of right knee extensors was investigated in 30 recreationally active males randomly allocated into 3 groups: high-intensity ... -
Heat tolerance and the validity of occupational heat exposure limits in women during moderate-intensity work
(2022)To mitigate excessive rises in core temperature (>1◦C) in non-heat acclimatized workers, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) provides heat stress limits (Action Limit Values; ALV), ... -
Increasing age is a major risk factor for susceptibility to heat stress during physical activity
(2017)We evaluated the extent to which age, cardiorespiratory fitness, and body fat can independently determine wholebody heat loss (WBHL) in 87 otherwise healthy adults. We show that increasing age is a major predictor for ... -
On the use of wearable physiological monitors to assess heat strain during occupational heat stress
(2018)Workers in many industries are required to perform arduous work in high heat-stress conditions, which can lead to rapid increases in body temperature that elevate the risk of heat-related illness and even death. Traditionally, ... -
Physical characteristics cannot be used to predict cooling time using cold-water immersion as a treatment for exertional hyperthermia
(2018)We examined if physical characteristics could be used to predict cooling time during cold water immersion (CWI, 2 °C) following exertional hyperthermia (rectal temperature ≥39.5 °C) in a physically heterogeneous group of ...
