Mapping static and dynamic postures in seated operatives of vibrating mobile plant or vehicles EL2013-018 | 2013

Outline of reasons and objectives
Prolonged exposure to whole-body vibration increases the risk of low-back pain problems. In France, 3 million mobile plant operatives who work in the sitting position may be exposed to this type of stress (drivers…
Modelling and experimental characterisation of mechanical vibration propagation in the upper limb when using rotary handheld machinery EL2012-012 | 2012

Outline of reasons and objectives
Today, in France, approximately 11% of salaried workers are exposed to vibration transmitted to the upper limb. Prolonged exposure to high levels of vibration can lead to a certain number of pathologies. To try…

Simulation of vibration of handheld machinery EL2015-005 | 2015

For assessing the exposure to vibration to which users of handheld machinery are subjected, companies use emission measurements taken in situ under real use conditions, in compliance with Directive 2002/44/EC. Since such measurements are time-consuming…
Modelling the vascular remodelling phenomena that result from exposure of the hand-arm system to vibration EL2014-004 | 2014

The physiopathological mechanisms induced by exposure of the hand-arm system to vibration are still ill-known, despite the steps taken by the European States to protect workers. That lack of knowledge lies behind the lack of representativeness…
