Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

To live a safe, secure, comfortable, healthy, and sustainable life, it is necessary to prevent occupational vibration disorders caused by exposure to occupational vibrations at work sites. To prevent this, the ISO/TC108/SC4 committee (https://www.iso.org/committee/51514.html) has developed and issued many international standards.  But a method for measuring the amount of exposure to whole-body vibration and hand-arm vibration of each worker during work at the site and clearly grasping the actual exposure situation and preventing occupational vibration disease from occupational vibration exposure from the actual exposure data are still unknown.  Therefore, in this special feature of the Life Journal, we collected information on how to live a safe, secure, comfortable, and healthy life, and the amount of vibration exposure to each worker at the work site during work. The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect papers proposing the concept or methodology of risk assessment based on collected data.

  • WBV measurement equipment consideration
  • HAV measurement equipment consideration
  • WBV collecting data consideration
  • HAV collecting data consideration
  • WBV risk assessment from collecting data
  • HAV risk assessment from collecting data
