Title Adjusting the evaluation limit for broad-band whole-body vibration
Bibliographic information May 1996, Vol.57, No.5, p.476-479. Illus. 5 ref.
Abstract The vibration levels of 87 axes in 29 conventional industrial, agricultural and civil vehicles were measured, recorded and analyzed. The vehicle vibrations were broad-band vibrations. The mean deviation of the overall frequency-weighted vibration levels and the greatest single one-third octave band frequency-weighted vibration levels were calculated. It is suggested that 6dB is an appropriate adjustment of the evaluation limit when a broad-band whole-body vibration is characterized by a single quantity.
