Abstract text:
This paper presents the harmful effect of vibrations on the human body. The vibration effect is quantified using the perception coefficient, K. In order to determine the perception coefficient, measurements were made in an area near the railways. Based on the measurements, the intensity of vibration and the degree of human vibration perception were determined. The results show that the vibrations generated by the railway transport and transmitted to the adjacent areas are highly perceptible, thus imposing vibration mitigation measures.
Key Words:
coefficient of perception; intensity of vibration
