Figure 5

Local interaction torque indexes (ITl), averaged across all the subjects, displayed for the three speed and two load conditions.

From left to right: ITl of elbow extension/flexion, shoulder ulnar/radial, elevation/depression, internal/external, respectively. Noticeably, compared with shoulder-related DoFs, the ITl indexes at the elbow extension/flexion were considerably smaller. Between the three DoFs at the shoulder, the ITl indexes of shoulder ulnar/radial were smaller than the others. Statistical analyses showed significant effects of speed/load on the ITl index for these three DoFs, as indicated by horizontal bars
