Online Vigilance and Its Relationship to Digital Stress and Symptoms of Depression

The current study aims to identify the nature of the relationship between online vigilance , digital stress and symptoms of depression. Likewise, it detects gender differences in each of online vigilance, digital stress, and symptoms of depression. This is done through a sample of (244) male and female students from regular students in Saudi universities, including (134) males (110) females. The following tools were applied to the study sample: Online Vigilance Scale (Attribute), prepared by: (Reinecke et al, 2018) and Online Vigilance Scale (Status) prepared by (Johannes et al,2020), Arabization: Mohamed Abdul Raouf Abd Rabbo, and Digital Stress Meter (Prepared by (Fisher.R&Riedel,2021) Arabization: Mohamed Abdul Raouf Abd Rabbo, and the Aaron Beck Depression Scale translated by Abdul Sattar Ibrahim. One of the most important results of the study was the existence of a statistically significant correlation between online vigilance and both digital stress and depression symptoms. Also, there were no statistically significant differences between the sexes in each of online vigilance, digital stress, and depression symptoms, and online vigilance contributed to predicting both digital stress and depression symptoms.

Effect of Composted Organic Waste on Miscanthus sinensis Andersson Yield, Morphological Characteristics and Chlorophyll Fluorescence and Content

The aim of this research was to determine the impact of composted mushroom substrate and composted municipal waste on the quality and yield of Miscanthus sinensis Andersson biomass. The plant was grown on anthropogenic soil, cultured earth type and hortisol subtype, with a pH of 6.81. Before planting rhizomes, experimental plots were treated with composted mushroom substrate and composted municipal waste, applied separately or in combination, each dose introducing 170 N kg·ha−1 to the soil. During the experiment, observations of plant development and growth were carried out, and the yield was determined. Each growing season’s measurements were taken of the grass height, the number and diameter of stems and the number of leaf blades and of nodes per stem. In order to determine the level of plant stress, relative chlorophyll content and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were determined. The measurements were carried out in a non-invasive way, using the SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter and OS30p+ plant stress meter. For the research hypothesis, it was assumed that the one-time addition of composted mushroom substrate and composted municipal waste to the soil would increase yields. The experiment also aimed to assess the impact of both types of compost on the yield and morphological characteristics of Miscanthus sinensis. Its yields increased steadily, and, in the third year of cultivation, were higher by 52%. The highest average yields were noted on plots fertilized only with composted mushroom substrate (KPP100%), with 8.44 Mg·ha−1 DM, and with compost from municipal waste (KOM100%), with 7.91 Mg·ha−1 DM. The experience presents a solution to the problem of increasing amounts of organic waste and represents an improvement in cultivation techniques to increase crop yields, improve their quality and increase resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. This paper highlights the possibility of applying environmentally friendly organic waste materials to energy crops used as a sustainable energy source.

Effect of YF3 Coating Process on Film Stress

YF3 rare-earth fluoride coating material has received wide attention as an alternative to ThF4 low refractive index material, but the film layer can be seriously affected due to the different coating processes. Therefore, to investigate the rules between the coating processes of YF3 rare-earth fluoride coating materials, YF3 thin films were coated with different deposition rates and substrate temperatures. The stresses of YF3 thin films under different processes were obtained by a thin film stress meter, and the microscopic morphology of the thin films was characterized by atomic force microscopy. The results show that: YF3 monolayer film is tensile stress; in the deposition rate between 0.5nm/s~1.5nm/s, with the increase of the coating deposition rate YF3 monolayer film stress tends to decrease, the roughness of the film is also gradually increased, and the overall thickness of the film surface decreases; in the substrate temperature is greater than 50 ℃, the film stress is significantly reduced.

Study on the effect of annealing rate on the impact resistance of the H-ZLaF50 vehicle plate glass

The H-ZLaF50 glass has attracted much attention in the field of automotive glass applications due to its excellent mechanical properties. The effect of the annealing rate on the impact resistance of the H-ZLaF50 glass was studied. High-precision infrared stress meter was used to test the stress distribution of glass under different annealing rates and the influence of annealing rate on the stress distribution was found. Secondly, the impact resistance of the H-ZLaF50 glass samples was evaluated by the test method of electric falling ball impact resistance. The maximum impact energy of the H-ZLaF50 glass samples was 0.120 J. The results show that, compared with other annealing rates, the annealing rate of 1°C/min effectively improves the impact resistance of the H-ZLaF50 glass, which makes it more widely used in the automotive flat glass market.

Wall shear stress measurement of turbulent bubbly flows using laser Doppler displacement sensor

A novel wall shear stress meter is developed to promote studies of frictional drag reduction by injecting air bubbles into a turbulent boundary layer. Such studies require a tool having a time resolution sufficiently high to capture the unsteady effect of turbulent characteristics due to various bubble passage patterns. The present study adopts the principle of the heterodyne interferometer to capture of time variation of wall shear stress in turbulent flow up to 500 Hz in sampling frequency. We demonstrate the performance of the tool by applying it to bubbly flows beneath a flat-bottom model ship running at 3 m/s in a towing water reservoir, where bubbles experience wavy passage around a few Hz in frequency. The data obtained by the proposed shear stress meter agree well with Dean's formula for single-phase turbulent channel flow. The scattering of the data across three trials is sufficiently small, at approximately 3 %. This high reproducibility is a great advantage over conventional direct measurements, which have low reproducibility and a large scatter of the data of approximately 15 %. The obtained results represent reasonable drag reductions by injecting bubbles with different void fractions. We also evaluate histogram of the wall shear stress fluctuation to characterize the effect of drag reduction by unsteady passage of bubbles.

Development of "DiabetesSutra" a mobile application for lifestyle management of Type 2 Diabetes in India.

Multiple mhealth (mobile health) interventions and mobile applications have been developed to support diabetes self-management. However, most of the apps are developed without the need for assessment and evaluation by experts in the field. This study aimed to design and develop a mobile application (app) supporting diabetes self-management for people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D) using a systematic approach. In this study mixed method design was used to develop the mobile application. The mhealth intervention was designed and developed in five steps: i) Extensive literature search, ii) Needs assessment of patients with T2D with the help of healthcare providers and patients (Interviews with 15 healthcare providers like clinicians, dietitians, and diabetes educators, and 2 focus group discussions with patients) iii) Ideation and content development of app based on outcomes of needs assessment; iv) content validation (by 10 healthcare providers) and v) App development on a hybrid platform. Evaluation of the app by users i.e., type 2 diabetes patients was done using the users' Mobile App rating scale (uMARS). The app was evaluated by 40 patients and rated on the uMARS questionnaire. A patient-centric mobile app was developed for the nutritional management of diabetes with three modules: The patient module, the Evaluation module, and the Healthcare provider module. The patient module was the app that was provided to the patients with features like diet, physical activity, blood glucose log, education, etc., in addition to, a symptom checker, Stress meter blog, and FAQ. The evaluation module was integrated with the app it works when a user enters any log, it evaluates the entry against the standard cutoffs and flash prompts on the screen. The Healthcare provider module interacts with the server to provide them with patient data, comments, and feedback. The users found the app to be satisfactory. Incorporating additional features to enhance the user interface and streamline navigation could potentially enhance user engagement, thereby aiding in the management of T2D.

Aluminum Chromium Nitride Coating on a Laser Shock Micro-Molded Surface of E690 High-Strength Steel and Its Antifriction Mechanism

Aiming its analysis at the poor hardness and wear-resistance of E690 high-strength steel, and the high hardness and good wear-resistance of AlCrN-coated, combined with the laser impact micro-modeling which can store oil lubrication, this paper carries out research on the synergistic wear reduction mechanism of laser impact micro-modeling AlCrN coated on the surface of E690 high-strength steel. Multi-arc ion plating technology is used to prepare the AlCrN coating on the laser-impact micro-modeling specimen; the micro-modeling AlCrN-coated specimen is subjected to a reciprocating friction test, and the hardness and residual stress of the coated surface are measured by equipment such as a residual stress meter and a microhardness tester. The microstructure and physical elements of the surface wear before and after the preparation of the coating are analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), confocal three-dimensional morphometer and XRD diffractometer, respectively. The results show that the prepared AlCrN-coated materials were well-bonded to the substrate. Compared with the micro-molding-only specimens, the average friction coefficient and wear amount of the micro-molded AlCrN-coated specimens with different micro-molding densities and depths decreased compared with the micro-molded specimens; among them, the average friction coefficient of the specimens with a micro-molding density of 19.6% and a depth of 7.82 µm was 0.0936, which was the lowest. Additionally, the AlCrN coating enhances the stability of the friction process of the specimen and reduces the amount of wear of the specimen. Under the premise of ensuring the anti-wear and stability properties of the material, the best integrated friction performance was achieved at a micro-molding density of 19.6% and a depth of 24.72 µm. A synergistic wear reduction and lubrication model of micro-molding and AlCrN-coating was established.

Welding Residual Stress Elimination Technique in the Top Chord of Main Truss of Steel Truss Bridge

The large-amplitude fluctuations of ultrasound in high-energy ultrasonic stress relieving cause the crystal grains or lattices in the high residual stress zone to vibrate or creep alternately. This triggers secondary effects such as ultrasonic softening and dislocation movement. The sound field also produces periodic shock waves or intermittent shock waves, which form local pressure gradients at the wave front. These pressure gradients cause local heating of the grain boundary, accelerating material softening and promoting slip between grains, ultimately resulting in residual stress elimination. This technique was applied to detect the welding residual stress of the upper chord of the main truss of Sanguantang Bridge by using an ultrasonic stress meter. After the measurement, it was found that the welding residual stress in some areas was too large, and the welding residual stress needed to be eliminated. The welding seam was re-inspected after the residual stress relief operation was completed. The test results showed a maximum reduction rate of 63.91% and an average overall reduction rate ranging from 24.52% to 37.23%. The reduction effect is more significant in areas with higher welding residual stress.

Development and application of a borehole stress meter in rocks surrounding the roadway, based on optical-fiber sensing technology

Stress in rock masses is an important parameter in the design and construction of underground engineering, such as the design and maintenance of mine roadways and the design of mining working faces. It is also a fundamental force causing the deformation and failure of geotechnical engineering excavation. At present, the abutment-pressure monitoring technology of the surrounding rocks of the coal mine roadway in China is not intelligent and systematic and lacks some high-precision sensing instruments and multi-functional monitoring systems. The mechanical model of the rocks surrounding the borehole was constructed by theoretical analysis of problems in the stress monitoring technology for underground rock masses in coal mines. Additionally, the interaction between the surrounding rocks and the borehole stress meter was analyzed. The borehole stress meters for tubular-structure fiber Bragg grating (TS-FBG) and cystic-structure fiber Bragg grating (CS-FBG) were designed by combining the sensing principle and sensing characteristics of fiber Bragg grating, and the performance of the two kinds of fiber Bragg grating borehole stress meters was compared by laboratory test. The track roadway of the 14,301 tested working faces in the Shaqu Coal Mine was taken as an example, and the stress of the rocks surrounding the 14,301-track roadway was monitored in real time by CS-FBG borehole stress meter during the mining of the working face. The following conclusions are drawn from the field application. The rig-site utilization results revealed obvious stress growth and stress peak zones in the mining-stress change curves of each measuring point on the two sides of the 14,301-track roadway in the process of mining the tested working face. Additionally, there were four stages: rapid rise, uniform growth, rapid rise to the peak, and rapid decline. Maximum stress monitored by the second station was 18.5 MPa, and the influence range of stress was over 140 m. Maximum stress monitored by the first measuring station was 19 MPa, the influence range of stress was about 80 m, and the peak stress position was about 20 m in front of the coal wall. Rig-site utilization proved the design of the CS-FBG borehole stress meter to be reasonable. Performance was stable and reliable, and the successful operation of field monitoring achieved the expected effect.

Chemical strengthening behavior of a glass substrate having locally different thickness

To understand the effect of chemical strengthening process on irregular geometry, a partially thinned glass substrate was strengthened according to the ion-exchange conditions, and the strengthening properties and the dimensional changes of the partially thinned glass were analyzed using a surface stress meter and a 3-dimensional analyzer. The results revealed that the compressive stress (CS) measured at a thin area of the glass substrate having different thicknesses was affected by the CS of a thick zone, and consequentially the CS of the thin zone was bigger than that measured at a same thickness glass. It was also found that the dimensional changes across the thin zone after chemical strengthening were relatively big, and as a result, it caused a physical deformation on the thin area due to the interference in the thick area.

Earthquake Focal Mechanisms as a Stress Meter of Active Volcanoes

AbstractThe orientation of faulting associated with volcano‐tectonic earthquakes follows the stress field there, as with tectonic earthquakes. Therefore, stress changes associated with volcanic activity change fault orientations or focal mechanisms. Zhan et al. (2022; https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GL097958) observed temporal changes of focal mechanisms associated with volcanic unrest. They decomposed the stress field into the ambient differential stress, volcano loading, and the stress change by the dike intrusion; they then evaluated their relative contributions to constrain the magnitude of the ambient differential stress that is consistent with the observation. This study indicates that focal mechanisms can be used to monitor the stress state of an active volcano. Combining focal mechanisms with other geophysical observables, such as seismic anisotropy and geodetic measurements, will give us more precise assessments of the stress state, leading to better forecasts of volcanic activity.

Analyzing the Impact of Mobile App Engagement on Mental Health Outcomes: Secondary Analysis of the Unwinding Anxiety Program.

BackgroundApp-based interventions provide a promising avenue for mitigating the burden on mental health services by complimenting therapist-led treatments for anxiety. However, it remains unclear how specific systems’ use of app features may be associated with changes in mental health outcomes (eg, anxiety and worry).ObjectiveThis study was a secondary analysis of engagement data from a stage 1 randomized controlled trial testing the impact of the Unwinding Anxiety mobile app among adults with generalized anxiety disorder. The aims of this study were 2-fold: to investigate whether higher microengagement with the primary intervention feature (ie, educational modules) is associated with positive changes in mental health outcomes at 2 months (ie, anxiety, worry, interoceptive awareness, and emotional reactivity) and to investigate whether the use of adjunctive app features is also associated with changes in mental health outcomes.MethodsWe analyzed the intervention group during the stage 1 trial of the Unwinding Anxiety mobile app. The total use of specific mobile app features and the use specific to each feature were calculated. We used multivariate linear models with a priori significance of α=.05 to investigate the impact of cumulative app use on anxiety, worry, interoceptive awareness, and emotional regulation at 2 months, controlling for baseline scores, age, and education level in all models. Significant relationships between system use metrics and baseline participant characteristics were assessed for differences in use groupings using between-group testing (ie, 2-tailed t tests for continuous data and chi-square analyses for categorical data).ResultsThe sample was primarily female (25/27, 93%), and the average age was 42.9 (SD 15.6) years. Educational module completion, the central intervention component, averaged 20.2 (SD 11.4) modules out of 32 for the total sample. Multivariate models revealed that completing >75% of the program was associated with an average 22.6-point increase in interoceptive awareness (b=22.6; SE 8.32; P=.01; 95% CI 5.3-39.8) and an 11.6-point decrease in worry (b=−11.6; SE 4.12; P=.01; 95% CI −20.2 to −3.1). In addition, a single log unit change in the total number of meditations was associated with a 0.62-point reduction in the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 scale scores (b=0.62; SE 0.27; P=.005; 95% CI −1.2 to −0.6), whereas a single log unit use of the stress meter was associated with an average of a 0.5-point increase in emotional regulation scores (Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire; b=0.5; SE 0.21; P=.03; 95% CI 0.1-0.9).ConclusionsThis study offers a clearer understanding of the impact of engagement with app features on broader engagement with the health outcomes of interest. This study highlights the importance of comprehensive investigations of engagement during the development of evidence-based mobile apps.

Study on the Effects of Multiple Laser Shock Peening Treatments on the Electrochemical Corrosion Performance of Welded 316L Stainless Steel Joints

To study the influence of laser shock peening on the electrochemical corrosion resistance of welded 316L stainless steel joints, welded 316L stainless steel joints are treated with different laser shock peening treatments (i.e., one, two, and three times). Our analysis employs electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), an X-ray stress meter, and electrochemical corrosion tests to observe and analyze the microstructure, structural composition, residual stress, and corrosion resistance in different areas of the surface of 316L before and after the laser shock peening. The results show that the residual stress distribution of the welded joints is optimized after laser shock peening, with a maximum residual compressive stress near the matrix of 171 MPa. When the number of laser shock peening treatments is two, the corrosion current reaches a minimum of 9.684×10−7 A/cm2, and optimal pitting resistance is obtained. However, when the number of laser shock peening treatments is further increased to three, the corrosion current increase and the pitting resistance decreases. In summary, the electrochemical corrosion resistance of the welded joints effectively improves after laser shock peening, but its performance begins to decline after three repeated shocks, which is related to the combined effects of stress change and microstructure phase transformation.

Monitoring and Analysis of Deformation Evolution Law of Fault Activation Caused by Deep Mining in Shizishan Copper Mine, China

In order to study the deformation evolution law of fault activation caused by deep mining in Shizishan Copper Mine, China, a monitoring system for fault activation slip is designed and implemented on the basis of the field investigation of footwall fault activation of the main orebody in the mining area. The displacement and stress of the fault are monitored by the multipoint displacement meter, bolt stress meter, and borehole stress meter. According to the measured results, the activation deformation laws of fault F2, fault F3, and fault F4 during deep continuous mining are analyzed in detail. The results show that, when the influence range of underground mining spreads to the fault, the increase in the additional tensile stress on the fault plane will reduce the shear strength of the fault and increase the slip of the fault. When the shear stress exceeds the shear strength of the fault plane, the shear failure of the fault plane occurs, the rock mass on both sides of the fault loses stability, and the fault becomes active; when the orebody in the deep sublevel 14 and sublevel 15 were continuously stoped, the development of the mining influence area to fault F2 leads to fault F2’s activation. When stoping the orebody in sublevel 16, fault F3 also activates. With the continuous downward mining of the deep part, the slip amount increases continuously. The fault activation sequence is from fault F2 to fault F3, and then to fault F4.

Effects of Substrate Roughness on Microstructure and Fatigue Behavior of Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation-Coated Ti-6Al-4V Alloy.

Ceramic coatings were prepared by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) on four different surface roughness’ of Ti-6Al-4V alloys. The effects of substrate roughness on the microstructure and fatigue behavior were investigated. Microstructural characterization was carried out by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and a laser scanning confocal microscope. In addition, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and a U-X360 stress meter were used to analyze the phase composition and residual stress properties of the coatings. The microstructure of coatings revealed the growth mechanism of the coatings. The larger and deeper grooves of the substrate promoted the nucleation and growth of the PEO coating, but the defects (cracks and pores) of the oxide layer became more serious. The fatigue test indicated a significant influence of substrate roughness on the fatigue life under low cyclic stress. The fatigue damage of PEO coatings decreases as the surface roughness of substrates decreases because of the synergistic effect of the coating surface defects and coating/substrate interface roughness. Substrate roughness influences the quality and fatigue performance of the oxide layer.

Music and Language

This review presents a highly selective survey of connections between music and language. I begin by considering some fundamental differences between music and language and some nonspecific similarities that may arise out of more general characteristics of human cognition and communication. I then discuss an important, specific interaction between music and language: the connection between linguistic stress and musical meter. Next, I consider several possible connections that have been widely studied but remain controversial: cross-cultural correlations between linguistic and musical rhythm, effects of musical training on linguistic abilities, and connections in cognitive processing between music and linguistic syntax. Finally, I discuss some parallels regarding the use of repetition in music and language, which until now has been a little-explored topic.

Hydration and Urine Quality in Workers Exposed to Heat Stress (Study on Ceramic Production Workers)

Workers in the ceramic industry were exposed to high heat stress every day, that can caused dehydration. Dehydration can be identified by urine color, urine pH, and urine specific gravity (USG). It is also necessary to know urine quality to indicate the health condition of workers, including by turbidity, presence of protein, epithelium, bacteria, and leucosit. This research is analytic and descriptive, with a cross-sectional. The population and sample are all workers in the ceramic industry center in Klampok Village, Banjarnegara Regency, Central Java, are 55 workers. The variables studied were heat stress, amount of drinking water consumption, dehydration status, and urine quality. Heat stress is measured using a heat stress meter, the amount of drinking water consumption is identified through interviews, dehydration status is measured through urine examination taken after work and analyzed in the Banjarnegara District Health Office laboratory, including color (with standard urine color indicator), pH (with digital pH), and the USG (with a refractometer). The quality of urine is seen from the turbidity, the presence of protein, epithelium, bacteria, and leucocyte levels that analyzed in the laboratory. Based on the urine pH no worker is dehydrated. However, based on the urine colour, 60% of the workers were dehydrated, and based on the USG, 76.4% of the workers were dehydrateded. The relationship between the amount of water consumption based on urine color, p value = 0,013, and based on USG p value= 0,863. 21,8% urine were cloudy, 91% positive protein, 91% positive leucosite, 96,4% normal epithel, 100% positive contains bacteria. There is a relationship between the amount of drinking water consumption with dehidration status based on urine color.

Effect of Temperature on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Fe-9Ni-2Cu Steel during the Tempering Process.

In this paper, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray stress meter (XRSA), atom probe tomography (APT), hardness, and tensile tests were used to study the effect of tempering temperature on the microstructure and properties of Fe-9Ni-2Cu steel. The results show that after the quenched samples were tempered at 460 °C for 2 h, the hardness values increased from 373 to 397 HV, and elongation also increased from 13% to 16%. With the tempering temperature increasing from 460 to 660 °C, the hardness firstly decreases from 397 to 353 HV and then increases to 377 HV, while the elongation increases to 17% and then decreases to 11%. The variation of the mechanical properties greatly depends on the evolution of the Cu-rich phase and carbides. The precipitation strengthening of the Cu-rich phase and carbides leads to the increase of hardness, but when the precipitate is coarsened, the precipitation strengthening weakens, and then, the hardness increases. When the tempering temperature is 560 °C, a large amount of stable reverse transformation austenite was formed with a content of 7.1%, while the tensile strength reached the lowest value of 1022 MPa and the elongation reached the maximum value of 17%.

Evaluation of occupational exposure to heat stress and working practices in the small and mid-sized manufacturing industries of Lahore, Pakistan

Background: Climate change is evident around the globe causing heat stress as an emerging public health problem for people working in tropical and subtropical areas. Occupational heat stress can impact the health and productivity of small and mid-sized enterprise workers. Objective: This study aimed to profile the indoor thermal environmental conditions and modify the working practices by recommending the work/rest cycle according to the international organization for standardization 7243. Study Design: This cross-sectional study design included eight industrial (Iron spare parts manufacturing) small and mid-size enterprises in Lahore, Pakistan. The indoor thermal environment, including globe temperature, natural wet bulb temperature, ambient temperature, relative humidity, and air velocity, were recorded during summer to measure the wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT). Quest heat stress meter (model 2500), modified Testo loggers (177-T4), and EL-USB-2-LCD data loggers were placed at different working stations to measure these thermal environmental parameters. A self-administered questionnaire was used to measure the workers’ demographic characteristics and working practices. The International Organization for Standardization 7243 reference was used to estimate and recommend the work/rest cycle. Results: 138 workers aged 28.59 ± 10.46 years participated in this study. Continuous work of 8.8 ± 1.5 hours per day with a conventional resting period of 30-60 minutes was recorded on a typical working day. The indoor wet bulb globe temperature ranged from 26.8°C to 36.4°C. The workers were registered for low (72.5%), moderate (18.1%), and high (9.4%) metabolic rates according to the International Organization for Standardization 7243 reference values. Conclusion: A high wet bulb globe temperature was recorded in the selected small and mid-sized enterprises making these workers vulnerable to heat stress and related illnesses. Work/rest cycle evaluation suggested that the workers were required to improve their cool-down time by avoiding continuous exposure to high temperatures and reducing the metabolic rate.

Fatigue on Oil Refinery Workers and Related Factors

Background: Work fatigue plays a large role in all industries in terms of performance, work safety, and work productivity. Oil and gas is an industry with a high level of occupational safety and health risks. Research of work-related fatigue is needed to detect critical risk factors early in order to prevent the adverse effect of work-related fatigue. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the prevalence of work fatigue in oil refinery workers at one of the oil refinery companies in Indonesia, and analyze the factors that influence it. Design and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 224 oil refinery workers. Questionnaire and work-related fatigue scales were used to assess demographic characteristics and work-related fatigue. A medical examination was applied to assess the health status of workers based on blood pressure, body temperature, and respiratory rate. The sound level meter and heat stress meter was used to measure noise and work climate. Cramer’s V correlation was applied to identify correlations between work-related fatigue and other parameters. Results: Work-related fatigue of 100% was found among workers, with categorized as low, medium, high, and very high in 9.38, 53.57, 30.35, and 6.7% of the workers, respectively. Work-related fatigue was significantly correlated with working period (p=0.028), health status (respiratory rate) (p=0.018), noise exposure (p=0.000) and work climate/heat stress (p=0.001). Conclusion: The companies should improve the health status of workers, reduce workload for aging workers, control noise, and control heat exposure in the workplace.
