The Whole-body Vibration Evaluation Criteria of Forestry Machines

Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: Ride vibration is a problem in forestry machines that can cause both injuries and discomfort to the operator. In order to evaluate forestry machine design with improved ride characteristics, it is useful to determine ride limiting operating speeds. Currently, although useful criteria like VDI 2057, ISO 2631, and BS 6841 have been used to assess vibration exposure, little information is available on how to use them in determining the ride limiting speed of off-road vehicles like forestry machines. However, a criterion of a 6-watt level of absorbed power would be more useful to determine the ride limiting speed because the absorbed power criterion is a crude representation of the operators'vehicle control response to ride vibration. Therefore, although there still are many deficiencies, the absorbed power criterion should be a pertinent criterion for the ride quality evaluation of forestry machines when used with other standards.
