Vibrations Transmitted to The Human Body Under the Dynamic Action of Surfaces and Mechanical Contact Points with Impact on Human Health
Main Article Content
Abstract
Research conducted over the last ten years, since 2014, has highlighted the effect of vibrations transmitted to the human body in direct contact with the surfaces and contact points of construction machinery. Thus, depending on the spectral composition of the vibrations, the exposure duration, and the transmission points of the wave vibration motions on the human body, criteria, acceptability levels, and effective analyses have been synthesized from the perspective of the type of construction machinery. In this context, the psychosensory and pathophysiological effects of the vibrations transmitted to the human body at the control post of the construction machinery while working on road and highway technologies in Romania were studied. This article outlines the specific requirements for vibration protection, as well as the vibration levels transmitted to the human body through the seat, hand-arm, and neck-head in the work cabin. Thus, the experimental values of the measured vibrations are provided.

Journal author rights
In order for Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration to publish and disseminate research articles, we need publishing rights. This is determined by a publishing agreement between the author and Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration. This agreement deals with the transfer or license of the copyright to Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration and authors retain significant rights to use and share their own published articles. Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration supports the need for authors to share, disseminate and maximize the impact of their research and these rights, in Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration proprietary are defined below:
For subscription articles:
Authors transfer copyright to the publisher as part of a journal publishing agreement, but have the right to: Share their article for personal use (manuscript version); retain patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights (including research data); proper attribution and credit for the published work.
For open access articles:
Authors sign an exclusive license agreement, where authors have copyright but license exclusive rights in their article to the publisher. In this case authors have the right to: share their article in the same ways permitted to third parties under the relevant user license; retain patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights (including research data); proper attribution and credit for the published work.
Rights granted to Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration
For both subscription and open access articles, published in proprietary titles, Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration is granted the following rights:
- The exclusive right to publish and distribute an article, and to grant rights to others, including for commercial purposes;
- For open access articles, Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration will apply the relevant third party user licence (Open access licencses) where Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration publishes the article on its online platforms;
- The right to provide the article in all forms and media so the article can be used on the latest technology even after publication;
- The authority to enforce the rights in the article, on behalf of an author, against third parties, for example in the case of plagiarism or copyright infringement.
