Back muscle forces contribute essentially to the whole-body vibration-induced spinal load. The electromyogram (EMG) can help to estimate these forces during whole-body vibration (WBV). Thirty-eight subjects were exposed to identical random low-frequency WBV (0)7, 1)0 and 1)4 m/s\ r.m.s. weighted acc

The investigators describe their multifaceted approach to the study of the relationship between whole-body vibration and low back pain. In vivo experiments, using percutaneous pin-mounted accelerometers have shown that the natural frequency is at 4•5 Hz. The frequency response was affected by postur
The effect of the magnitude of continuous and transient whole-body vibration in the vertical direction on both subjective and biodynamic responses of human subjects has been investigated experimentally. Additionally, the relation between the subjective responses and the dynamic responses has also be
