The vibration discomfort of standing persons: 0.5–16-Hz fore-and-aft, lateral, and vertical vibration

Magnitude-dependence of Equivalent Comfort Contours for Fore-and-aft, Lateral and Vertical Whole-body Vibration

Effect of Vibration Magnitude and Seated Posture on Reading Activity in Fore and AFT Vibration

A large number of passengers prefer to utilize the time while commuting from one place to other in public transport like train, car and other vehicles. Traveling time can be utilized performing many sedentary activities e.g. Reading, writing, sketching etc. Reading activity is the most preferred activity for utilization of time. Experimental study has been performed to find the effect of vibrat...

simultaneous vertical and fore - and - aft whole - body vibration : the effect of the phase between the two single - axis components

The vibration discomfort of standing people: evaluation of multi-axis vibration.

Few studies have investigated discomfort caused by multi-axis vibration and none has explored methods of predicting the discomfort of standing people from simultaneous fore-and-aft, lateral and vertical vibration of a floor. Using the method of magnitude estimation, 16 subjects estimated their discomfort caused by dual-axis and tri-axial motions (octave-bands centred on either 1 or 4 Hz with va...

Investigation of the transmission of fore and aft vibration through the human body.

Understanding the behavior of human body under the influence of vibration is of great importance for the optimal motor vehicle system design. Therefore, great efforts are being done in order to discover as many information about the influence of vibration on human body as possible. So far the references show that the major scientific attention has been paid to vertical vibration, although inten...
