VIBES — Integrated Biomechanical Assessment of Exposure and Safety - 2026_IDR_DMEC_31

The general objective of the project is to overcome the limitations of the standards currently in use for the assessment of WBV (Whole-Body Vibration) risk, by developing a new generation of protection systems and scientifically more robust risk assessment methodologies, based on a probabilistic, individualized, and biologically informed model.Specific Objectives and MethodologyThe project is structured into three interconnected sub-activities:1. "Big Data" Approach for the Development of Predictive Risk ModelsObjective: Identify the vibrational parameters (extracted from time histories, spectra, and shock analyses) and confounding factors (age, BMI, posture, etc.) that show the highest correlation with the severity of specific medium- to long-term pathologies.
