The effective use of computational modeling and simulation tools early in the design process
is arguably becoming a gold standard for modern product development. Compared to many …

Soft tissue artefact (STA), ie the motion of the skin, fat and muscles gliding on the underlying
bone, may lead to a marker position error reaching up to 8.7 cm for the particular case of the …

The rapid introduction of sophisticated computers, services, telecommunications systems,
and manufacturing systems has caused a major shift in the way people use and work with …

The objective of this study was to examine to what extent ergonomics simulations of manual
assembly tasks correctly predict the real outcomes in the plants and if recommended …

This study investigated how well ergonomics risk assessments on simulations with digital
human models (DHM) match real‐life assessments obtained on a car assembly line. Two …

Digital human modeling (DHM) technology offers human factors/ergonomics specialists the
promise of an efficient means to simulate a large variety of ergonomics issues early in the …

Recognizing the importance of both the torque-angle and torque-velocity relations, three-
dimensional (3D) human strength capabilities (ie, peak torque as a function of both joint …

We propose a new bounding volume that achieves a tunable strict convexity of a given
convex hull. This geometric operator is named sphere-tori-patches bounding volume (STP …

Simulate realistic human motion in a virtual world with an optimization-based approach to
motion prediction. With this approach, motion is governed by human performance measures …

Artificial Intelligent (AI) systems generally require training data of sufficient quantity and
appropriate quality to perform efficiently. However, in many areas, such training data is …
