2. 1. Brain processing of experimental muscle pain and its interrelation with proprioception and muscle fatigue : positron emission tomography study

   Author : Alexander Korotkov; Docent Tomas Graven-Nielsen; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : Experimental muscle pain; Hypertonic saline; Kinesthesia; Proprioception; Movement; Vibration; Muscle fatigue; Brain; Imaging; Positron emission tomography; Regional cerebral blood flow;

   Abstract : Chronic muscle pain is a significant medical and social problem and better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms involved is an important requirement for further development of diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation methods. Experimental imaging studies have investigated functional neuroanatomy of different pain components. READ MORE

4. 2. Prediction of engine component loads using previous measurements

   Author : Pär Mikaelsson Elmén; Mårten Olsson; Jan-Olov Aidanpää; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; engine; engine block vibration; engine block twist; engine block bending; vibration measurement; vibration estimation; rigid body vibrations; assumed modes; bending modes; torsion modes; system modification; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

   Abstract : Internal combustion engines are used in many applications. The same engine type may have different components mounted to it depending upon its use. These engine mounted components need to be designed against fatigue in order to withstand the engine vibrations. Measured engine vibrations are commonly used as input data for fatigue estimation.

5. 3. Towards consonance in working conditions, health and performance aboard high-performance marine craft

   Author : Manudul Pahansen de Alwis; Karl Garme; Anders Rosén; Stephen Myers; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high-speed craft; human factors; whole-body vibration; epidemiology; pain; fatigue; höghastighetsfartyg; mänskliga faktorn; helkroppsvibrationer; epidemiologi; smärta; trötthet; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : The High-Performance Marine Craft (HPMC) is a complex man-machine system dealing with the stochastic nature of the sea. The occupants of these craft are challenged by the strenuous work environments resulting in various detrimental conditions and reducing the overall performance of the system. READ MORE

6. 4. On Evaluation of Working Conditions aboard High-Performance Marine Craft

   Author : Pahansen de Alwis; Karl Garme; Anders Rosén; Joakim Dahlman; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high-speed marine craft; human factors integration; whole-body vibration; epidemiology; musculoskeletal pain; fatigue; höghastighetsfartyg; human factors; HFI; helkroppsvibrationer; epidemiologi; muskuloskeletal smärta; utmattning; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : High-Performance Marine Craft (HPMC) is a complex system confronted by the stochastic nature of the waves challenging the safety of life at sea. The personnel aboard these craft are vulnerable to detrimental conditions, in fact, limiting the system’s performance evoking the significance of the Human Factors Integration (HFI) in the design and operation of these craft.

7. 5. Vibration-induced muscle injury in the hand - experimental and clinical studies

   Author : Lars Necking; Malmö Handkirurgi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatologi; Surgery; muscle morphometry; intrinsic hand muscle; muscle strength; muscle injury; hand weakness; Vibration exposure; hand-arm vibration syndrome; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi;

   Abstract : Exposure to vibration is known to cause vasospastic white fingers and/or sensorineural symtoms such as numbness and tingling in fingers and/or musculoskeletal disorders such as reduction in muscle force, fatigue and reduced endurance. Classifications for the vasospastic and sensorineural symptoms are established. READ MORE
