The purpose of the study is to make an assessment of the vibration exposure of a person lying on a stretcher in an ambulance driven at a constant speed. Contrary to seated person, lying person is exposed to vibrations simultaneously at all points. The response of the human body to laterally transmitted vibrations is different than its response to vertically transmitted vibrations. Besides the effective frequency ranges for different parts of the human body are different. In order to establish a base for a sound estimate of the effects of vibration exposure of patients transported to the hospital, accelerations are measured in three directions on healthy persons (three men in trial and eight men in actual measurements). Measurements are done in “supine” and “semi-supine” postures. Head, back (T8) and hip are chosen as the measurement points. The first part of the study comprise the measurements done on the floor of the ambulance at the two points close to the fixation points of the stretcher and at the centre point. Since the three points are not statistically different, the floor measurements are decided to be done at the centre point. In the second part of the study accelerations are measured at the hip, back, head of the lying person and at the centre point on the ambulance floor. The effect of, three different road conditions (hump, cobble stone and asphalt) and the stretcher’s angle on the vibrations transmitted to the persons are assessed. The study is completed by stating the effective frequency ranges for hip, back and head of lying persons.

Effect of achilles tendon vibration at adapting to different sensory conditions Carlak, Renan Arda; Gürses, Senih; Department of Engineering Sciences (2019) The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of Achilles tendon vibration (ATV) on postural sway behavior and backward body tilt (fall) response at adapting to different sensory conditions. The effect of anticipation on postural responses during ATV is also examined. Two different somatosensory environments are created which are without and with bodily somatosensory (touch) cue, respectively. In these different sensory environments, bipedal quiet stand test is applied on a force platform in both eyes-o...
Locating EMS vehicles in general networks with an approximate queueing model and a metaheuristic solution approach Akdoğan, Muharrem Altan; Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; İyigün, Cem; Department of Industrial Engineering (2015) In this study, problem of optimal location decision of ambulances as an server-to-customer Emergency Medical Service (EMS) vehicle is discussed. Hypercube queueing models (HQM) are employed to achieve performance measures significant to the location decision of EMS vehicles in spatial networks. Geroliminis et al(2009) extends HQM and propose Spatial Queueing Model(SQM). Our study proposes a generalization of SQM to be used in general networks. Quality of approximations inherit to SQM is questioned, and repo...
Acute effects of local vibration on muscle performance at different durations and frequencies Yıldırım, Ahmet; Korkusuz, Feza; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2010) The purpose of the present study was to investigate the acute effects of local vibration on muscle performance at different durations and frequencies. Fifteen male handball players participated in the study voluntarily. University’s Ethics Committee approved the study and the informed consent forms were filled by all participants. Different vibration durations, (10 sec, 1 min, 10 min), different frequencies (40 and 80 Hz), dominancy (dominant and non-dominant) and conditions (vibration and no-vibration) wer...
The Effects of plyometric training in normobaric hypoxia on body composition, anaerobic performance, strength, and explosive power Coşkun, Betül; Koçak, Mehmet Settar; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2019) Purpose of this study is comparing the effects of plyometric training in hypoxia and normoxia on body composition, jump and sprint performance, Wingate anaerobic power and isokinetic strength test results. 23 male volunteers from physical education students (Age=20.39±2.02) participated and were randomly divided into Plyometric training in Hypoxia (PTH)(n=8), Plyometric training in Normoxia (PTN)(n=7) and Control (n=8) groups. While PTH performed plyometric training under normobaric hypoxic conditions (3.53...
Psikolojik Semptomların Trafikte Heyecan Arama ile İlişkisinin İncelenmesi Gümüş, Gizem; Öztürk, İbrahim; Tekeş, Burcu (null; 2018-11-17) Studies conducted within the scope of traffic psychology show that the human factor is the most important factor in traffic accidents (Sümer ve Özkan, 2002; Şehirli, 2000; Türkoğlu ve Eldoğan, 2002). It is important for traffic safety to address the relationships between personality traits that are risky in traffic, driving styles, and psychological symptoms. In this study, the relationship between psychological symptoms and sensation seeking, which is related to negative outcomes in traffic, was investigat...
