... processes and factors influencing recovery from fatigue have been studied. Muscular fatigue, fatigue during complex industrial processes have been studied. Work curves have been constructed and studied. Rest periods have been found to be especially valuable before extreme fatigue occurs. Length of workday and workweek has been studied.
