Vibration-Sensing Electronic Yarns for the Monitoring of Hand Transmitted Vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Overexposure to hand transmitted vibrations (HTVs) from prolonged use of vibrating power tools can result in severe injuries. By monitoring the exposure of a worker to HTVs, overexposure, and injury, can be mitigated. An ideal HTV-monitoring system would

Dupuytren's contracture and occupational exposure to hand-transmitted vibration. [PDF]

open access: yesOccup Environ Med, 2014
The relation between Dupuytren's contracture and occupational exposure to hand-transmitted vibration (HTV) has frequently been debated. We explored associations in a representative national sample of workers with well-characterised exposure to HTV.We mailed a questionnaire to 21 201 subjects aged 16-64 years, selected at random from the age-sex ...

Investigating the Relationship between Coupling Forces and Hand-Transmitted Vibration under Varying Excitation Levels

open access: yesVibration, 2022
In this study, the vibration total value of the acceleration transmitted to the wrist and elbow was measured in the laboratory with a group of 13 male subjects holding a cylindrical handle while modifying the coupling force under varying levels of ...

Epidemiological Evidence for New Frequency Weightings of Hand-Transmitted Vibration

open access: yesIndustrial Health, 2012
This paper provides an overview of the exposure-response relationship for the vascular component of the hand-arm vibration syndrome, called vibration-induced white finger (VWF). Over the past two decades, several epidemiological studies have shown a poor agreement between the risk for VWF observed in various occupational groups and that predicted by ...

Frequency weightings of hand-transmitted vibration for predicting vibration-induced white finger

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2011
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of four frequency weightings for hand-transmitted vibration to predict the incidence of vibration-induced white finger (VWF).

Determination of hand-transmitted vibration risk on the human

open access: yesInternational Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 2019
Objective: The purpose of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of the proposed consideration for hand-transmitted vibration measurement on the human. Method: To obtain the temporary threshold shift (TTS) in the fingertip vibrotactile perception threshold, the vibrotactile perception thresholds were measured before and after the subjects were ...

Frequency-dependence of Psychophysical and Physiological Responses to Hand-transmitted Vibration

open access: yesIndustrial Health, 2012
This invited paper reviews experimental studies of the frequency-dependence of absolute thresholds for the perception of vibration, equivalent comfort contours, temporary changes in sensation caused by vibration, and reductions in finger blood flow caused by hand-transmitted vibration.

Pathophysiology of Vibration‐Induced White Finger and Safety Levels for Hand‐Transmitted Vibration

open access: yesJournal of Occupational Health, 1996
Pathophysiology of Vibration‐Induced White Finger and Safety Levels for Hand‐ Transmitted Vibration: Ryoichi Inaba, et al. Department of Hygiene, Gifu University School of Medicine—This review addresses the pathogenic mechanism and vibration safety values of vibration‐ induced white finger (VWF). Sympathetic hyperactivity alone has long been postulated
