✦ Synopsis

The relative importance of some of the parameters instrumental in the production of Vibration Induced White Finger have been identified. Difficulties encountered in the measurement of the vibration signal are mentioned, and possible means of overcoming them discussed. The problems of setting up a damage risk criteria are looked at and reference is made to a number of proposed criteria.

Particular reference has been paM to the relevance of a new draft British Standard and the way in which it deals with a number of spectra relating to different processes known to cause Vibration Induced White Finger.
