A definition and valuation of the UK offsite construction sector: ten years on (2020)
Journal Article
Taylor, M. (2022). A definition and valuation of the UK offsite construction sector: ten years on. International journal of construction management, 22(15), 2877-2885. https://doi.org/10.1080/15623599.2020.1829783

Ten years on the offsite construction (OSC) industry continues to be held high as a panacea to the inefficiencies, labour shortages and environmental impact of the construction of our built environment. Speculation concerning the gross output and the... Read More about A definition and valuation of the UK offsite construction sector: ten years on.

Elite mountain bike enduro competition: a study of rider hand-arm vibration exposure (2019)
Journal Article
Kirkwood, L. A., Taylor, M. D., Ingram, L. A., Malone, E., & Florida-James, G. D. (2019). Elite mountain bike enduro competition: a study of rider hand-arm vibration exposure. Journal of Science and Cycling, 8(1), 18-25. https://doi.org/10.28985/1906.jsc.04

Limited information is currently available regarding the hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure 5 for professional off-road cyclists. Previous reports have suggested that commuting and 6 recreational cyclists are at risk of exceeding exposure limit values...

Wearable technology and workplace epidemiology: a practical example from the field of hand-arm vibration (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Taylor, M. (2019, April). Wearable technology and workplace epidemiology: a practical example from the field of hand-arm vibration. Poster presented at The 12th UK/Ireland 1-day Meeting on Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology, Surgeons' Hall Museums, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

This work investigates the application of wearable technology for the collection of exposure data relevant to the study of Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome. Wearable technology designed for mass adoption coupled with the IoT has yielded a unique data set...

Determination of hand-transmitted vibration risk (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maeda, S., Taylor, M., Anderson, L. C., & McLaughlin, J. (2019, April). Determination of hand-transmitted vibration risk. Poster presented at Occupational Hygiene 2019, Brighton, United Kingdom

Hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) is a debilitating industrial disease induced by exposure to vibrating machinery. As an irreversible condition, monitoring, controlling and reducing exposure are crucial to minimise the risk of developing the disease...

Assessing correlation of human response to vibration through vibrotactile threshold shift with vibration exposure determined on the subject (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maeda, S., Taylor, M. D., Anderson, L., & Mclaughlin, J. (2018, September). Assessing correlation of human response to vibration through vibrotactile threshold shift with vibration exposure determined on the subject. Presented at 53rd UK Conference on Human Responses to Vibration (UK HRV), Ascot, United Kingdom

Existing risk assessment methodologies are based on fixed tool vibration magnitude emission data and tool usage time. The research evaluates the relationship between vibration dose assessment on subjects using wearable sensors with temporary threshol...

Assessing the relationship between the human response to vibration in the vibrotactile threshold shift with HAV exposure determined on the subject (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Anderson, L., Taylor, M., Maeda, S., & McLaughlin, J. (2018, August). Assessing the relationship between the human response to vibration in the vibrotactile threshold shift with HAV exposure determined on the subject. Presented at The 26 th Japan Conference on Human Response to Vibration (JCHRV2018), Osaka, Japan

Existing risk assessment methodologies are based on fixed tool vibration magnitude emission data (such as tool declaration data or a point in time (typically annually) tool measurement to ISO5349) and tool usage time. The research evaluates the rela... Read More about Assessing the relationship between the human response to vibration in the vibrotactile threshold shift with HAV exposure determined on the subject.

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maeda, S., Taylor, M., Anderson, L., & McLaughlin, J. (2018, August). Is it efffective to prevent HAVS by using tool vibration declaration values?. Presented at The 26th Japan Conference of Human Response to Vibration (JCHRV2018), Kindai University, Osaka, Japan

This study reports the results of an investigation into A(8) based on tool vibration declaration values evaluation effects of hand-transmitted vibration on temporary threshold shifts of vibratory sensation on the finger. The hand-transmitted vibratio... Read More about Is it efffective to prevent HAVS by using tool vibration declaration values?.
