Difference between revisions of "Human Vibration"

For each point, the vibration must be measured in the three direction X, Y and Z. AS different weighting will be used for each direction, it is really important that each sensors are oriented according to the same directions. The Z direction must always used in the direction of the human spine.<br>

Specific sensors must be used in order to detect vibration at the transmission point. For a seated person, [https://www.dytran.com/Model-5313A-Triaxial-Seat-Pad-Accelerometer-P2161/|Seat Pad accelerometer] allow to acquire vibrations at the buttocks :<br>

If necessary, the same kind of sensors can by used under the feet of a standing person. These sensor must be fixed to hold in place when the subject move. For vibration transmitted to feet, standard accelerometers can also be placed on the floor.<br>

The length of the measurement should be representative of the whole exposure duration during a day. However, as it is not always possible to acquire long signal, the ISO 2631 specify that measurement must be taken for at least 20 minutes, and 2h measurement are preferable. Using the OROS tool kit, long signals file can be take a lot of time to analyse. In order to analyse signal files longer than 30 minutes, we advise to : <br>

* Split each sensors over several files
