Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purposes of this study are to carry out vibration experiments with Japanese subjects, to obtain vibration characteristics from the experiments and to develop a human model which is capable of describing the vibration characteristics. Our final goal in the future is to obtain adult standard vibration characteristics of Japanese.
First, we defined posture indexes which are values to quantify subject's seated posture. The posture indexes were calculated based on measurements of subject's body. It was shown that the posture indexes describe subject's seated postures well.
Next, we obtained the vibration characteristics from the experiments and investigated relations between the posture indexes and the vibration characteristics. It is found that specific values of the posture indexes and some of the vibration characteristics have strong correlations. By using the correlations, we developed a multiple regression model which calculates the vibration characteristics from the posture indexes.
