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

FOUNDATIONS OF HAND-TRANSMITTED VIBRATION STANDARDS [PDF]
1994-05Standards for hand-transmitted vibration predict dependent variables (e.g. finger blanching) from measurements of a few independent variables (e.g. vibration magnitude, vibration frequency, exposure duration).

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

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

Comparison between the Biomechanical Responses of the Hand and Foot When Exposed to Vertical Vibration [PDF]
Workers can be exposed daily to foot-transmitted vibration (FTV) from standing on mobile equipment or vibrating platforms and surfaces. This results in a consistent risk of developing neurological, vascular, and musculoskeletal problems.

Developing a vibration-sensing yarn for monitoring hand-transmitted vibrations [PDF]
Overexposure to hand-transmitted vibrations (HTVs) is a serious concern within industries that use vibrating power tools as HTVs can lead to severe and chronic injuries to the hand-arm system, which are preventable by limiting vibration exposure.
