Reduction in finger blood flow induced by hand-transmitted vibration: effect of hand elevation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 2015
Objectives This study investigated the effect of hand elevation on reductions in finger blood flow (FBF) induced by hand-transmitted vibration. Methods Fourteen males attended six sessions on six separate days, with a control sessions and a vibration ...

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 ...

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 ...

Peripheral circulation and peripheral nerve injury in workers exposed to vibration at two different frequencies

open access: yes环境与职业医学, 2022
BackgroundHand-arm vibration disease is harmful to human body, but there are no effective diagnosis and treatment so far, and current occupational exposure limits underestimate the health damage caused by high-frequency vibration exposure.

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 ...

Developing a Vibration-Sensing Yarn for Monitoring Hand-Transmitted Vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Conference on the Challenges, Opportunities, Innovations and Applications in Electronic Textiles, 2019
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. This study presents a novel vibration-sensing electronic yarn (E-yarn) that can be used to monitor HTVs at ...

Evaluation of the vibration characteristics and handle vibration damping of diesel-fueled 15-HP single-axle tractor

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
Attenuation of vibration transmitted from a single-axle tractor to a human hand results in a better operating environment, enhanced production performance, and decreased user pain.
