Terminology
Mechanical vibration is caused (emitted) above all during the use of mechanical tools and vehicles. Vibration is frequently coupled with noise . This is due to vibration and noise frequently sharing the same physical causes, such as unbalanced mass forces, shocks, and the interaction between workpiece and tool.

Impact upon the human being
The impact of vibration is dependent upon its amplitude and frequency.
Low-frequency vibration in particular has a harmful effect upon human organ systems, since their resonant frequencies lie within this range.
Vibration of high amplitude and low frequency causes damage above all to the locomotor apparatus.
Vibration at high frequencies (for example on hand-operated machines)may lead to circulatory disturbances in the fingers.
In addition, vibration impairs reaction and dexterity, and can therefore lead to an increased accident hazard.
