This study is performed to evaluate hand-arm vibration syndrome(HA VS) of the workers in swaging process. Vibration measurement and assessment of human exposure are based on the international standard(ISO 5349). Triaxial acceleration of each operation and exposure time are measured to predict the periods before finger blanching, As results, it is found that acceleration is concerned with the diameter of pipes in swaging process, and also found that combined work is more harmful than a single operation.

The objective of this paper is to numerically examine the mechanical behavior of the swaged power steering(PS) hose subject to internal pressure. PS hose experiences a large internal pressure change in operating, so it's material part has to resist a cyclic expansion and compression without causing oil leakage. This cyclic pressure is intimately associated with fatigue failure of PS hose. In this study, we compare two types of PS hose. The numerical investigation is composed of three steps; swaging analysis, low and high pressure analyses. The comparative numerical results provide the basic data for the optimal PS design.
