Overview

The goal and the main thrust of the Second American Conference on Human Vibration were to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, medical doctors, industrial hygienists, and educators to learn and advance research/education in the unique area of human body vibration. In promoting health and safety and in stimulating progress, leaders in the field were invited to share their insight and expertise in addition to the excellent and plausible papers on the presentation schedule. These proceedings of the conference will serve as a means of continuing the dialogue. This unique forum afforded participants opportunities to learn firsthand what their peers and colleagues are working on and to exchange information on a variety of relevant topics including human response, human modeling, experimental design, sensors, new technologies, and epidemiology studies in human responses to hand-transmitted and whole-body vibration. This research is essential for better understanding the risk factors for adverse effects related to vibration and for designing more effective interventions to prevent painful and potentially disabling work-related injuries. This conference addressed contemporary issues regarding occupational health, prevention measures, and scientific data collection used to study the complex, dynamic human response to vibration. The agenda included a rich and diverse scientific program as researchers and medical professionals from around the world gathered to examine human responses to hand-transmitted vibration and whole-body vibration.
