The effects of whole body vibration on bone recovery following hindlimb unloading of adult female rats

Creator:

Herron, Jacquelyn Camille

Abstract:

Introduction: A bone deficit is found to persist five years following a hip fracture and 10 years post tibial fracture in adults. We examined the effect of whole body vibration (Vib) as a means for enhancing whole body composition and bone recovery following hindlimb unloading (HU) of adult female rats....

Characterization and mitigation of train vibrations in a laboratory facility

Creator:

Atanasov, Atanas A.

Abstract:

Excessive environmental vibrations can have deleterious effects in a variety of animals. Despite the potentially detrimental effects vibrations may have on animal health and experimental results, they remain poorly understood in the animal laboratory setting. This study investigates the consequences of excessive train vibrations on the breeding success of laboratory...

A 60 Second Exposure of Whole Body Vibration has no Effect on Muscular Strength or Vertical Jump Height.

Creator:

Welch, John D.

Abstract:

For more than 30 years, researchers have investigated the effects of whole body vibration (WBV) platforms on athletic performance. WBV is a modality in which an individual stands on a vibrating platform to obtain performance effects. Frequency and amplitude of the vibration are the commonly adjusted parameters. The use of...
