foam injection is widely applied in amounts of fields to drilling, production, and formation protection. sometimes, the application result is disappointing, which is caused by the failure of bubble generation in foam flooding. therefore, it is necessary to seek ways for improving the performance of foam injection. an increased disturbance to the stratum, like the vibration caused by a seismic o...

In the various working field, vibration may cause injurious to human body. Especially, in case of the vibration which is constantly and repeatedly transferred to the human. That gives serious physical problem, so called, Reynaud phenomenon. In this paper, we propose a vibration transmissibility reduction module with flexure mechanism for personal tools. At first, we select a target personal too...

The vibration control of a construction vehicle must be carried out in order to meet the aims of sustainable environmental development and to avoid the potential human health hazards. In this paper, based on market feedback, the driver seat vibration of a type of wheel loader in the left and right direction, is found to be significant over a certain speed range. In order to find abnormal vibrat...

The University of Salford has derived an exposure-response relationship for vibration in residential environments. Vibration measurements have been used for assessing the human exposure alongside a social study questionnaire based on face-to-face interviews for quantifying the human response. This paper deals with the exposure side of the study. In order to cover the wide range of exposures aff...

OBJECTIVE Occupational use of vibrating hand tools contributes to the development of upper extremity disorders. While several types of vibration damping materials are commercially available, reductions in vibration exposure are usually tested in the laboratory rather than in actual work environments. This study evaluated reductions in hand vibration with different vibration damping intervention...

Neck muscle vibration was applied to human subjects to assess the influences of neck abnormal proprioceptive input on the organization and execution of gait. Subjects walked blindfolded to a previously seen target, located straight ahead at ~4 m. Vibration was applied on the right side of the neck, both during and before walking. The variables measured were length, duration, and velocity of tra...

Purpose. To examine the effects of two doses of low-frequency (12 Hz), low-magnitude (0.3 g), whole body vibration on markers of bone formation and resorption in postmenopausal women. Methods. Women were recruited and randomized into a sham vibration control group, one time per week vibration group (1×/week), or three times per week vibration group (3×/week). Vibration exposure consisted of 20 ...

Executive Summary of Findings This document contains review of literature on the effects of vibration on human performance. It is intended to address the issues relevant to reported difficulties in the use of the XM4 Command and Control Vehicle while the vehicle is in motion. The focus of this review is on the effects of vibration on visual task, with additional consideration given to manual ta...

numerous parameters influence bit selection process, which considering all them is not normally feasible. existing methods use limited number of these parameters to choose a suitable bit for a specific drilling condition. one of the widely used methods is cost per foot. specific energy and drilling strength are another methods currently used for bit selection. different methods of bit selection...
