Fatigue

Fatigue

Fatigue occurs when materials rupture under repeated or fluctuating loads, even at stress levels far below their static breaking strength. It typically results in brittle failure, even for ductile materials. It is a critical consideration in designing machines and structural components subjected to repetitive or varying loads. The nature of these loadings can range from fluctuating loads like unbalanced pump impellers causing vibrations to repeatedly bending a thin steel rod wire back and forth...

Muscle Recovery and Fatigue

Muscle Recovery and Fatigue

Muscle fatigue refers to the decline in a muscle's ability to maintain the force of contraction after prolonged activity. It primarily stems from changes within muscle fibers. Even before experiencing muscle fatigue, one may feel tired and have the urge to stop the activity. This response, known as central fatigue, occurs due to changes in the central nervous system, namely the brain and spinal cord. While there is no single mechanism that induces fatigue, it may serve as a protective...

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation

Insufficient sleep refers to not getting the recommended amount of sleep for optimal functioning, even if it's just slightly less than needed. Sleep insufficiency may occur due to lifestyle choices, such as staying up late for social events or work, resulting in routinely getting less sleep than required. For example, consistently sleeping 6 hours when the body needs 7-9 hours can lead to cumulative effects on health and well-being.
Sleep deprivation is a more severe form of sleep loss...

Fatigue Strength of Concrete

Fatigue Strength of Concrete

Fatigue, in the context of materials science and engineering, refers to the weakening or failure of a material caused by repeatedly applied loads, even if these loads are below the strength limit of the material. Fatigue strength in concrete is a critical property that influences its durability and longevity. Concrete can fail in two ways due to fatigue. Static fatigue or creep rupture occurs under a constant load or one that increases slowly. The other failure mode is due to cyclical or...

Stress and Mental Health

Stress and Mental Health

Chronic stress profoundly affects mental health, significantly influencing mood, behavior, and overall quality of life. Research closely links chronic stress with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. Ongoing exposure to stress can lead to physiological and psychological changes, initiating a cycle of emotional distress and maladaptive coping mechanisms.
Individuals with depression often experience challenges in both their personal and professional...

Area of Science:

Psychology
Occupational Health
Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a rapid shift to remote work, increasing reliance on videoconferencing.
Videoconference fatigue emerged as a discussed phenomenon, characterized by exhaustion linked to virtual meetings.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the nature and occurrence of videoconference fatigue.
To identify videoconference characteristics associated with employee fatigue.

Main Methods:

A mixed-methods approach combining qualitative thematic analysis and quantitative data collection.
Quantitative data collected hourly from remote employees over five workdays.
Latent growth modeling and multilevel modeling analyzed fatigue trajectories and meeting characteristics.

Main Results:

Videoconference fatigue was confirmed, often occurring shortly after meetings.
Meeting timing influenced fatigue trajectories.
Turning off microphones and higher group belongingness correlated with reduced post-meeting fatigue.

Conclusions:

Videoconference fatigue is a genuine issue influenced by meeting specifics.
Group belongingness is a key protective factor against videoconference fatigue.
Findings provide actionable insights for managing remote work and virtual collaboration effectively.
