Fundamentals of Safe Life Activities (OBZhD)

Mechanical vibrations - These are periodically repeating movements, rotational or reciprocating. Any process of mechanical oscillations can be reduced to one or more harmonic sinusoidal oscillations, which are characterized by an amplitude equal to the maximum deviation from the equilibrium position; oscillation speed; acceleration; an oscillation period equal to the time of one complete oscillation; frequency of oscillations, equal to the number of complete oscillations per unit of time.

A variety of mechanical vibrations is vibration - these are small mechanical vibrations that occur in elastic bodies under the influence of variable forces, which are practically impossible to balance perfectly. For example, vibration on the ground propagates in the form of elastic waves and causes vibrations of buildings and structures.

Machine vibration can lead to malfunction of the equipment and cause serious accidents. It is the cause of 80% of accidents in machines, as it leads to the accumulation of fatigue effects in metals, the appearance of cracks.

When exposed to vibration on a person the most significant is that the human body in this case is a complex dynamic system that changes depending on the posture of the person, his state (relaxation or tension) and other factors. For such a system, there are dangerous, resonant frequencies, and if external forces act on a person with frequencies close to or equal to the resonant ones, then the amplitude of oscillations of both the whole body and its individual organs increases sharply. For the human body in a sitting position, resonance occurs at a frequency of 4-6 Hz, for the head - at 20-30 Hz, for the eyeballs - at 60-90 Hz. At these frequencies intense vibration can cause traumatization of the spine and bone tissue, visual impairment, in pregnant women cause premature birth.

Fluctuations cause variable mechanical stresses in the tissues of the body, which are captured by many receptors and transformed into the energy of bioelectrical and biochemical processes. Information about the vibration acting on a person is perceived by the vestibular apparatus, which is located in the temporal bone of the skull and consists of the vestibule and semicircular canals located in mutually perpendicular planes. The vestibular apparatus provides an analysis of the positions and movements of the head in space, the activation of muscle tone and the maintenance of body balance.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
