Electrical signal activity on upper limb muscle during mechanical load carrying : a study on emg-angle relationship

The relationships between EMG and elbow angle were investigated to identify the signal on upper-limb muscle. Ten participants were their arm fixed in an isometric position and 100% of maximum voluntary contraction (MVC). Electromyogram (EMG) is the one kind of biological signal that can be recorded...
