New frequency weighting of hand-arm vibration.
A new frequency weighting method to assess hand-arm vibration exposure is proposed in this paper. The influence of frequency components was first estimated using the method of multivariate analysis, then a simple form of the weighting curve was introduced. Compared with the frequency weighting in the current ISO 5349-1 (2001), the proposed weighting can better explain the relationship between r...
متن کاملSubjective Responses to Hand-arm Vibration: Implications for Frequency-weighting and Gender Differences
Exposure to vibration transmitted to the hands and arms may increase the risk of developing chronic disorders. Current ISO standards regarding exposure are based in part upon assumptions regarding the relationship between threshold measurements and subjective experiences of vibration at higher intensity levels. This study investigated this relationship by comparing absolute threshold levels at ...
متن کاملHand-arm vibration syndrome.
The hand-arm vibration syndrome affects workers who perform tasks that generate vibration. Raynaud's phenomenon and sensory impairment of the fingers are the predominant effects. A history of hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure in a patient with these symptoms should alert the physician to the diagnosis. Referral to a special clinic or hospital department for multiple clinical tests is required t...
متن کاملHand-arm Frequency-weighted Vibration Effects on Tactility
This study reports results of an investigation into the short-term effects of power hand tool vibration on deep sense tactile sensitivity. Five subjects operated a simulated hand tool using a 30 s / 30 s work~rest duty cycle. The handle vibrated at 1S0 5349 weighted acceleration of 8 m / s 2, for frequencies of 20 Hz, 80 Hz, and 160 Hz, in three orthognal directions. A no-vibration condition wa...
متن کاملStudy of the effect of hand-arm vibration on hand grip strength
Introduction: Musculoskeletal injuries are one of the most common causes of work-related illnes, reimbursement and absence among workers in working environments throughout the world. Among various factors, exposure to vibration is one of the main causes of these injuries. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of key factors on the occurrence and exacerbation of the effects of expo...
