Abstract

The main goal of this study is to determine how mechanical vibrations—which may come from a variety of sources, including vehicles, machinery, waves, and more—affect human health. Mechanical vibrations affect the human body in numerous ways, and the harm they inflict may take many distinct forms. The two primary kinds of impacts are long-term consequences and short-term effects. Long-term effects of mechanical vibrations on the human body can result in fatigue, drowsiness, and diminished focus. These effects can be caused by continuous exposure to vibrations from sources such as machines or vehicles. Prolonged exposure to mechanical vibrations can lead to chronic health issues that affect the overall well-being of an individual. On the other hand, short-term effects of mechanical vibrations on the human body are more immediate and can cause mechanical harm to specific organs, including the neurological system, joints, and bones. These effects can occur due to sudden shocks or impacts from sources such as accidents or sudden jolts. The effect of mechanical vibrations on the human body is assessed using a variety of factors, including amplitude, frequency, duration of action, acceleration, and more (Fliegel et al., 2011). However, because the term "vibration" has different meanings in biology, medicine, and engineering, it's crucial to avoid conflating them. In engineering, the term "shock" is used to refer to non-periodic excitation that is rapid and severe. A shock wave is an abrupt change in pressure that travels through a medium at a speed faster than the speed of sound. When it comes to the human body, shock forces are typically defined as those that reach their peak levels in less than a few tenths of a second and last no more than a few seconds. The magnitude of vibrations can have an impact on biological systems, and if the amplitude is high enough, vibrations at all frequencies can affect the human body (Brammer & Von Gierke, 2002) .The response of the human body to vibrations is a primary factor that influences discomfort in a moving vehicle. Many issues related to human health, both in terms of comfort and functionality, can be caused by the vibration of the human body. As a result, tire and vehicle manufacturers have a strategic relationship with the simulation of the human body in the driving position (Al-Baghdadi et al., 2021). The field of engineering now places a high priority on understanding and mitigating vibrations. This topic has become even more crucial as industries and automobiles continue to develop. In the modern world, almost every household owns a car, making research on the phenomena of vehicle vibration and its consequences on people of utmost importance. The mechanical properties of the human body, which is a complicated mechanical system, may be simply changed. Vibration's mechanical and biological impacts on the human body are very intricate and diverse. On the magnitude of forces necessary to mechanically harm the human body, there is, however, little precise information currently on the market. The majority of the time, experimental animals are employed in studies on mechanical injuries to safeguard people. It is crucial to carefully examine the applicability of findings collected from animal studies to humans, as there are significant differences in size, anatomical structure, and physiological functions between animals and humans (Katu US et al., n.d.). Despite these challenges, research on the impact of mechanical vibrations on human health continues to advance, with the goal of better understanding and mitigating the potential negative effects of vibrations on the human body. In summary, the effects of mechanical vibrations on human health are a complicated and multifaceted subject that need for careful evaluation of a number of variables, including amplitude, frequency, duration of action, acceleration, and more. Fatigue may arise from vibrations over time.
