HUMAN RESPONSE EXPOSED TO VIBRATION CONCERNING BRIDGE SERVICEABILITY

Response of Fire Exposed Steel Bridge Girders

Human response to vibration in residential environments.

This paper presents the main findings of a field survey conducted in the United Kingdom into the human response to vibration in residential environments. The main aim of this study was to derive exposure-response relationships for annoyance due to vibration from environmental sources. The sources of vibration considered in this paper are railway and construction activity. Annoyance data were co...

Raynaud's phenomenon in workers exposed to vibration.

Both the finger systolic blood pressure (FSP) and the rewarming test of finger skin are measures of circulation in the finger; the first reflects the vasoconstriction phase and the second the vasodilatation phase. The combinations of the specificity and the sensitivity of these methods were evaluated by a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The material included 37 vibration-induced ...
