Abstract
This paper presents a musculoskeletal model for assessment of the effect of low-frequency whole-body vibrations on the human body. It is a basic assumption behind the model that the vibrations are slow enough to allow the central nervous system to respond to them in terms of muscle activations for stabilization and posture adjustments. It is concluded that the approach extends the availability of models for assessment of workspaces and other environments in which the human body is subjected to slow vibrations and relies on support points to maintain posture and stability.
