Analysis of Postural Instability in the Upright Position on Narrow Platforms and the Interactions with Postural Constraints

Analysis of Postural Instability in the Upright Position on Narrow Platforms and the Interactions with Postural Constraints

Background: Loss of balance is a considerable risk factor for workers while using ladders, because they are required to maintain static postural balance on platforms of a restricted size. This study observed center of mass (CoM) and center of pressure (CoP) behaviors and evaluated the effects of the...
