Dynamic interactions occurring inside special vehicles during operation

Abstract

Due to the dynamic development of road transport over the last thirty years, it has become necessary to monitor its impact on people and the surrounding environment. Vibrations as the main determinant of ride comfort, are one of the sources of negative impact of a vehicle on the human body. Determining the causes of vibrations in the driver's workplace and then suppressing them to acceptable levels may contribute to the reduction of many irreversible diseases in future users of the equipment. The authors reviewed the literature in relation to the currently used methods and discussed the impact of vibrations on drivers and special vehicle crews.
