Handbook of Human Vibration, Griffin

 

  This book is required reading for anyone who wants to understand what seakeeping really means. It includes everything you need to know about the effects of low and high frequency repetitive motion on human beings. The chapter on motion sickness covers human physiology, theories of motion sickness, quantifying motion sickness, and more.

The theory behind (and history of) ISO 2631 is explained in detail.

We have found this book to be an invaluable reference for the analysis and quantification of motion sickness and of shock and vibration. Where else will you find a discussion of "vomiting index" that isn't referring to food poisoning, amusement park rides, or movie reviews?
