title = "Effect of Fatigue of the Protective Clothing Wearer on Body Balance Performance Caused by Shorten or Prolonged Workload with Heat Exposure",
abstract = "This study aimed to investigate the effect of fatigue on body balance performance caused by shorten and prolonged workload with heat exposure. Shorten and prolonged experiments were conducted for the present study. Ten healthy men participated in the experiment for exploring of deterioration of balance ability by physiological and psychological fatigue due to heat exposure with wearing protective clothing for construction sites. The main finding of this study indicates that body balance performance was affected by shorten and prolonged workload with heat exposure. The core temperature and body weight loss measured during workload with heat exposure were significantly high. The body sway parameters showed a similar tendency, although the differences were not significant. Accumulation of fatigue from prolonged stress from workload and heat exposure seems to contribute to the decline in body balance performance.",
