Is it still rattling or is it already humming? Differences in the perception of amplitude-modulated whole-body vibrations.

Is it still rattling or is it already humming? Differences in the perception of amplitude-modulated whole-body vibrations.

In many everyday situations, people are exposed not only to sounds but also to vibrations. If not only individual body parts are exposed to the vibration, but entire body is exposed to the vibration, one speaks of whole-body vibrations. In particular, people sitting in vehicles are exposed to whole-body vibrations, but also visitors to concerts, for example.
We have systematically investigated the influence of a wide range of parameters of amplitude-modulated signals on the expression of descriptive attributes of whole-body vibrations.
