Researches into the relationship between the physical quantity of vibration and the
subjectively perceived quantity become important in designs for the vibration environment …

The discomfort of seated subjects exposed to a wide range of vertical mechanical shocks
has been studied experimentally. Shocks were produced from responses of single degree-of …

In this paper, a literature study is presented on the types of objective measures that can
contribute to the prediction of (dis) comfort, the feasibility of measuring those factors, and the …

At present, the geogrid is commonly used to treat the differential settlement of the subgrade
at the joint of the filling and excavation effectively. In order to further improve the utilization …

The frequency content of a mechanical shock is not confined to its fundamental frequency,
so it was hypothesised that the frequency-dependence of discomfort caused by shocks with …

BACKGROUND: Occupational foot-transmitted vibration (FTV) exposure is common in
industries like mining, construction, and agriculture, often leading to acute and chronic …

The effect of the “phase” on human responses to vertical whole-body vibration and shock
has been investigated analytically using alternative methods of predicting subjective …

The research performed in the domain of human body vibrations revealed their important
influence on human health, being the origin of several professional diseases. Consequently …

In oder to generate various shock signals in a field study, a passenger car was driven at
several speeds over road profiles that included a number of half sine shaped bumps of …

When designing a vehicle, the ride comfort is an essential factor to investigate. Recently, the
discomfort of the harshness when riding over a bump depends not only on the amplitude of …
