Shoulder mechanics are complex and challenging to characterize. No other human musculoskeletal mechanism combines such intricate geometry with high movement flexibility. A persistent issue is the reliable estimation of mechanical exposure data. These data are required to proactively avoid negative consequences including tissue damage such as rotator cuff pathology, adaptive movement, and muscle fatigue. Many factors influence these exposures including arm posture, hand forces, health status, bone shape, tissue tolerance and strength. Major unresolved issues surrounding tissue damage are studied in Dr. Dickersons research program, including population variability, specific muscle fatigue, and tolerance of tissues to realistic exposure conditions.

肩部力学是复杂且具有挑战性的。没有其他人类肌肉骨骼机制将如此复杂的几何结构与高度的运动灵活性结合在一起。一个长期存在的问题是机械暴露数据的可靠估计。需要这些数据来主动避免负面后果，包括组织损伤，如肩袖病理、适应性运动和肌肉疲劳。许多因素影响这些暴露，包括手臂姿势、手的力量、健康状况、骨骼形状、组织耐受性和力量。dickerson博士的研究项目研究了围绕组织损伤的主要未解决问题，包括人群变异性、特定肌肉疲劳和组织对现实暴露条件的耐受性。
