Synthesis of Optimal Isolation Systems of Hand-Transmitted Vibration [PDF]

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 1997
In this article a procedure is presented for the analytical synthesis of optimal vibration isolation for a hand-arm system subjected to stochastic excitation. A general approach is discussed for a selected vibration isolation criterion.

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).

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 ...

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.

Vascular response to the microcirculation in the fingertip by local vibration with varied amplitude

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Objectives: We investigated the effect of local vibration intensity on the vascular response to the microcirculation of the finger.Materials and methods: We performed hand-transmitted vibration experiments combined with laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) to ...

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.
