ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to evaluate correlation between electromyography
(EMG) activities and vehicle dynamics in a real driving condition. One male driver
performed a double lane change test at 80 km/h velocity. As dependent variables,
EMG signals from anterior temporalis, sternocleidomastoid, upper trapezius,
anterior deltoid, pectoralis
