Development of vibration test system to measure human biodynamic responses to hand-transmitted vibration (HTV)

Workers commonly experience hand-transmitted vibrations (HTV) especially in industries involving power tools. Vibration exposure will differ by individuals where prolonged and unmonitored exposure can lead to the development of symptoms known as hand arm vibration syndrome (HAVS). A deep understandi...
