Title: | Tuned mass damper to control hand-arm vibrations of hand-held tools | Authors: | Abu Hanieh, Ahmed | Keywords: | Damping (Mechanics);Tuned mass dampers;Finite element method;Active noise and vibration control;Tools;Vibration control;Hand-held tool | Issue Date: | 10-Mar-2022 | Publisher: | Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management | Source: | Ahmed Abu Hanieh, Tuned Mass Damper to Control Hand-Arm Vibrations of Hand-Held Tools, Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management, March 7-10, 2022, Istanbul, Turkey | Series/Report no.: | IEOM society; | Conference: | The 12th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management, | Abstract: | This article concentrates on the problem of hand-arm vibration syndrome that occurs to hand workers who use hand-held tools for digging or drilling. To control vibrations induced in these devices, a tuned mass damper system is suggested here where another handle with elastomeric material is installed around the tools’ handle. The new handle is equipped with a passive tuned mass damper used to oppose the dynamic vibrational motion of the tool. This device proved ability to reduce the level of vibrations more than 40 dB (100 times). Simulation results are promising and the device can be installed to any existing tool. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11889/6918 |
