Through continued collaboration and the sharing of ideas, data, and results, the international community of researchers and practitioners has developed an understanding of many facets of the human response to vibration. At a time when the EU is preparing to adopt a directive on health risks arising from occupational exposure to vibration, Human Response to Vibration offers authoritative guidance on this complex subject. Individual chapters in the book examine issues relating to whole-body vibration, hand-arm vibration, and motion sickness. Vibration measurements and standards are also addressed. This book meets the needs of those requiring knowledge of human response to vibration in order to make practical improvements to the physical working environment. Written with the consultant, practitioner, researcher, and student in mind, the text is designed to be an educational tool, a reference, and a stimulus for new ideas for the next generation of specialists.
Summary: Good for NVH research, but that’s it
Rating: 3
I bought this book expecting to learn some about “good” vibration and “bad” vibration. This book does talk about some testing results that try to correlate subjective and objective measurements, but most of the book is an instruction manual on how to perform the tests, types of acceleometers to use, etc. The book should be titled: “Vibration measurement techniques and example results”
