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 technology. It is
not surprising that computer-aided modeling has emerged as a
promising method for ensuring products meet the requirements of the
consumer. The Handbook of Digital Human Modeling provides
comprehensive coverage of the theory, tools, and methods to
effectively achieve this objective. The 56 chapters in this book,
written by 113 contributing authorities from Canada, China, France,
Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Taiwan, UK, and the US,
provide a wealth of international knowledge and guidelines. They
cover applications in advanced manufacturing, aerospace,
automotive, data visualization and simulation, defense and military
systems, design for impaired mobility, healthcare and medicine,
information systems, and product design. The text elucidates tools
to help evaluate product and work design while reducing the need
for physical prototyping. Additional software and demonstration
materials on the CRC Press web site include a never-before-released
220-page step-by-step UGS-Siemens JackTM help manual developed at
Purdue University. The current gap between capability to correctly
predict outcomes and set expectation for new and existing products
and processes affects human-system performance, market acceptance,
product safety, and satisfaction at work. The handbook provides the
fundamental concepts and tools for digital human modeling and
simulation with a focus on its foundations in human factors and
ergonomics. The tools identified and made available in this
handbook help reduce the need for physical prototyping. They enable
engineers to quantify acceptability and risk in design in terms of
the human factors and ergonomics.
