  • Title: [The effect of mechanical vibration on the spinal column].
    Author: Dupuis H.
    Journal: Orthopade; 1990 Jun; 19(3):140-5. PubMed ID: 2374691.
    Abstract:
    Drivers of trucks, earth-moving equipment, fork-lift trucks, agricultural tractors and military vehicles are often exposed to a high amount of vibration. The stress-strain model is helpful for demonstrating the effects as the biodynamic behavior of the seated workers is important. Epidemiological research draws our attention to the danger involved for the lumbar spine from mechanical vibration. Prevention measures are given.
