Performance, complexity and dynamics of force maintenance and modulation in young and older adults.

The present study addresses how task constraints and aging influence isometric force control. We used two tasks requiring either force maintenance (straight line target force) or force modulation (sine-wave target force) around different force levels and at different modulation frequencies. Force le...
