This paper presents a method of modeling cell growth phenomenon of the arterial wall exposed to vibration. The arteries constantly adapt their morphology to counter the effects of internal disorders or external stresses. It is assumed that…

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…

Hand-Arm Vibration syndrome (HAVS) is usually caused by long-term use of hand-held power tools. It typically occurs after exposure to cold, causing an abnormally strong vasoconstriction of blood vessels. A model predicting the geometrical and…
