A Proposal on Neurological Dose–Response Relationship for Inclusion in ISO 5349-1 Documentation to be Used in Tropical Environment

The objective of this paper is to calculate the association between the eight-hour time weighted average vibration exposure, A(8) and years of vibration exposure in the tropical environment using the results of hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) study conducted among a total of 173 male construction...
