Title Design of vibration dampers to reduce riveting noise in aircraft construction
Original title Entwicklung von Schwingungsdämpfern zur Nietlärmminderung im Flugzeugbau [in German]
Bibliographic information Fachinformationszentrum Energie, Physik, Mathematik, 7514 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen 2, Federal Republic of Germany, 1981. 63p. Illus. 19 ref.
Abstract Research report on the humanisation of work. Contents: analysis of the problem of riveting noise, principle and construction of vibration dampers, tests and measurement of noise (in laboratory conditions and in the workplace). The dampers consist of vibration-absorbing mats which press against the workpiece, using suction pads connected to a vacuum pump. Noise reduction was between 6 and 9dB(A).
