ISO 10068:2012规定了人类男性手臂系统在驱动点处的机械阻抗。为对应于基心坐标系的xh轴、yh轴和zh轴的三个正交平移激励方向提供了表示为模量和相位的阻抗值。 对于指定的臂位置、抓握和进给力、手柄直径和激励强度，阻抗的xh-、yh-和zh-分量被定义为频率的函数，从10Hz到500Hz。三个方向上的阻抗分量被视为独立的。 ISO 10068:2012可用于定义驱动点处的手臂系统机械阻抗的典型值，适用于指定情况下的男性。ISO 10068:2012可暂时适用于女性。驱动点处的机械阻抗的参考值被提供为特定抓握和进给力的频率的函数。 这些阻抗值旨在确定弹性材料在由臂式系统加载时的透射率。 提供了模拟表观质量或阻抗平均值的手臂系统的数学表示。 描述了一个带手套的手臂模型，并提供了手臂系统中振动功率吸收的频率依赖性。 为了帮助进一步测量机械阻抗，特别是对于ISO 10068:2012中未规定的情况，提供了有关机械阻抗测量的信息。

ISO 10068:2012 specifies the mechanical impedance of the human male hand-arm system at the driving point. Values of the impedance, expressed as modulus and phase, are provided for three orthogonal, translatory directions of excitation that correspond to the x_h-, y_h- and z_h-axes of the basicentric coordinate system. The x_h-, y_h- and z_h-components of impedance are defined as a function of frequency, from 10 Hz to 500 Hz, for specified arm positions, grip and feed forces, handle diameters, and intensities of excitation. The components of impedance in the three directions are treated as being independent. ISO 10068:2012 can be used to define typical values of the mechanical impedance of the hand-arm system at the driving point, applicable to males under the circumstances specified. ISO 10068:2012 can provisionally be applied to females. Reference values of the mechanical impedance at the driving point are provided as a function of frequency for a specified grip and feed force. These impedance values are intended for the determination of the transmissibility of resilient materials when loaded by the hand-arm system. Mathematical representations of the hand-arm system that model the mean values of apparent mass or impedance are provided. A gloved hand-arm model is described, and the frequency dependence of vibration power absorption in the hand-arm system is also provided. To help conduct further measurement of the mechanical impedance, especially for circumstances that are not specified in ISO 10068:2012, information on the measurement of mechanical impedance is provided.
