Research on the effect of vibration on human body -Mechanical/Biomedical engineering- -- 2

Research on the effect of vibration on human body is a hot topic in Mechanical/Biomedical engineering where researchers study the influences of resonance frequency on the human health. To do that, subjects of different masses and sizes are put to vibration testing where accelerometer measure the vibration transmitted through human body. Researchers use the collected data to come up with a mathematical model that simulates the human response to vibration. The mathematical modelling process starts with assuming the human body as a multi-stage spring-damper system, on which the equation of motion for this system is found, and experimental data are used to fit the parameters of the system.
