2021 IOE 334 Green Ergonomics Laboratory
Undergraduate students Roger Harvey, Mitchell Lee and Andres Marin-Gallo use an impulse integrating sound level meter to pick up the audio decibel from a running push mower outside of the Lurie Engineering Center on North Campus at the University of Michigan on September 28, 2021.
The students are taught how to use sound level meters and octave band analyzers to support human factor evaluations and to make engineering assessments of the effects of real products. For lawn mower users/operators, the concerns are health and hearing loss. For the community, there are concerns about communication interference (for people nearby) and sleep loss.
