- Abstract
This work deals with an analysis of the acceleration level to which a patient is exposed during ambulance transportation. A dynamic analysis of ambulance movements has been approached considering some different operating conditions of the vehicle, such as braking, driving over speed bumps and on uneven pavements. The purpose of this study is providing sources for development of a system reducing vibration effects on the body when a patient is transported by ambulance.
