Modeling of vibration transmission through impact elements

Transmission of vibration through gloves: effects of material thickness.

It might be assumed that increasing the thickness of a glove would reduce the vibration transmitted to the hand. Three material samples from an anti-vibration glove were stacked to produce three thicknesses: 6.4, 12.8 and 19.2 mm. The dynamic stiffnesses of all three thicknesses, the apparent mass at the palm and the finger and the transmission of vibration to the palm and finger were measured....

Transmission of vibration through gloves: effects of contact area.

For three samples of material (12.5, 25.0 and 37.5 mm diameter) from each of three gloves, the dynamic stiffnesses and the vibration transmissibilities of the materials (to both the palm of the hand and the thenar eminence) were measured at frequencies from 10 to 300 Hz. Additional measurements showed the apparent masses of the hand at the palm and the thenar eminence were independent of contac...

Vibration transmission through the human spine during physical activity

Osteoporosis causes bone to become fragile. Pharmacological treatments of osteoporosis are burdened with adverse effects and increase bone mineral density (BMD) only between 1% and 15% depending on the drug and time used. Thus non pharmacological treatments are needed to complement pharmacological ones. Physical activity is a non pharmacological treatment of osteoporosis and is essential for ma...

semi-analytical solution for static and forced vibration problems of laminated beams through smooth fundamental functions method

در این پایان نامه روش جدیدی مبتنی بر روش حل معادلات دیفرانسیل پارهای بر اساس روش توابع پایه برای حل مسایل ارتعاش اجباری واستاتیک تیرها و صفحات لایه ای ارایه شده است که می توان تفاوت این روش با روش های متداول توابع پایه را در استفاده از توابع هموار در ارضاء معادلات حاکم و شرایط مرزی دانست. در روش ارایه شده در این پایاننامه از معادله تعادل به عنوان معادله حاکم بر رفتار سیستم استفاده شده است که مو...
