Mechanical calibration and traceability of seismometers in operating conditions are still a technical challenge, since very low-frequency ranges (below 0.1 Hz) involved, sensors under investigation generally heavy bulky. Recently, within the vibration metrology field, some pioneering works proposed to evaluate seismometers’ sensitivity by applying laboratory mechanical procedures, against prima...

introduction:   the daf is a large persian frame drum used as a musical instrument in both popular and classical music which can induce a percussive sound at low frequencies (146–290 hz) with peaks of up to 130 dbspl. the percussive sounds have a power distribution in the region of saccular sensitivity. in view of the saccular stimulation by sound in humans, we decided to use cervical vestibula...

Introduction: This study aims to determine the amount of hand-arm vibration transmitted from heavy electric destruction tools and the effect of using chisel with different lengths and shapes when demolishing concrete surfaces. Material and Methods: To evaluate the magnitude of hand-arm vibration on the left and right handles of two powerful electric demolition hammers commonly applied in Irani...

today there are different vibration isolators used in industries according to the weight and excitation frequency of the machines which have vibration. one of them is air spring which is in two types: convoluted air spring and membrane air spring. convoluted air springs are used to control vibrations in low frequency (usually lower than 10 hz) and the membrane ones are used in high frequency (u...

The present study was a protocol for investigation of the effect of acetaminophen (i.p.) on pain induced by electrical stimulation. We used tail shock vocalization (TSV) test for measurement of the pain. In this test, the animals were restrained and stimulated by two electrode implanted on the middle of the animal’s tail. The latency from stimulation of the tail till vocalization of the animal ...
