Carlson","doi":"10.17077/dhm.31791","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17077/dhm.31791","url":null,"abstract":"Collision detection and distance computation algorithms often form the bottlenecks of many digital human modelling simulations in industrial processes. When designing vehicle assembly lines or cobot assembly cells it is essential to be able to accurately simulate collision free interactions both for efficient and safe operations. Hence, any attempt to improve such algorithms can have a broad and significant impact. Most of the focus is typically on speeding up the queries, however, with models becoming larger as scenarios become more realistic and simulations include more elements such as musculoskeletal models and 3D human body modelling, other parts of the proximity query performance are becoming important such as the management of memory. In this paper, we demonstrate a new technique called ME-BVH (Memory Efficient Bounding Volume Hierarchies) to improve memory usage for proximity queries with bounding volume hierarchies. The approach utilizes a simple and effective way of grouping primitives together at the leaf level and building the bounding volume hierarchy top down to the grouped primitive leaves. The paper then shows ways of efficiently carrying out primitive and bounding volume queries to offset the greater number of potential queries. In addition, the modifications taken are simple enough to be easily applied to most bounding volume hierarchies. By using these approaches, we demonstrate on a number of real-life assembly scenarios with millions of primitives that, compared to existing approaches, our proposed method is able to save up to half of the memory used and can reduce the build times at little cost to the query performance. In addition, the methods developed here are compatible with all BVH types and queries used in ergonomic simulations, unlike many other approaches. The developed algorithms present advantages for proximity queries for deformable meshes used in digital human modelling by reducing the time it takes to build a bounding volume hierarchy which often must be rebuilt or updated many times during simulations due to mesh deformations.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133384968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For reasons of sustainability, the fleet of future regional passenger aircraft are expected to have an increased proportion that are propeller powered. Current turboprop regional aircraft have a reputation for being noisy and exposing passengers to vibration. Laboratory studies have simulated the aircraft cabin including noise, vibration and thermal stressors and sought subjective responses from volunteers. These data were used to build multi-factorial models of comfort in an aircraft cabin. Two modelling approaches were used: second order polynomial curve fitting allowed for prediction of subjective ratings from measurements of noise and vibration at discrete temperatures. A multi-factorial model including noise, vibration, and thermal parameters was developed using a linear regression machine-learning approach. This model allows for the prediction of subjective responses within a range of noise, vibration, and temperature levels that are experienced in aircraft. This paper presents the development of a model of the human response to noise, vibration and thermal stimuli. The model allows for the prediction of the response to noise, the response to vibration, the response to the thermal environment and the overall discomfort. It also predicts which of the modalities will be most important in terms of human response.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126229831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bellet","doi":"10.17077/dhm.31754","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17077/dhm.31754","url":null,"abstract":"Taking over the manual control of a car after Automated Driving (AD) is a key issue for future road safety. However, performance to resume this manual control may be dependant of the driver’s level of engagement in driving during AD. Indeed, according to the level of automation (from L2 to L3 of the SAE), drivers will be in charge of monitoring the driving situation, or will be allowed to perform non-driving related tasks (NDRT) and thus, to be fully disengaged of the driving task. In this context, the present study aims to investigate the influence of the driver’s level of engagement/disengagement during AD on takeover performance using a driving simulator. Four levels of engagement/disengagement were studied: (C1) being engaged in driving situation monitoring without TakeOver Request (TOR) to resume the manual control, (C2) being engaged in driving situation monitoring with a TOR to resume the manual control, (C3) being disengaged of the driving monitoring by performing a cognitively demanding secondary task with a TOR to resume the manual control, and (C4) being disengaged of the driving monitoring in a relaxed position situation with eyes closed and with a TOR to resume the manual control. Forty participants were performed sixteen critical takeover scenarios involving different critical takeover situations. Drivers reaction times and collision risks were measured to assess their takeover performances and to investigate the safety of automation levels 2 and 3. Driving situation monitoring with a TOR (C2) induce shortest reaction times and a lower number of collisions. For the relaxed posture (C4), drivers took longer time to react than the other three conditions. Driving situation monitoring without TOR (C1), had the highest number of collisions. This suggests that the engagement in driving is not always effective and efficient without TOR. Moreover, being in a relaxed position during automated driving decreases takeover performance.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128313759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Harih, Vasja Plesec","doi":"10.17077/dhm.31739","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17077/dhm.31739","url":null,"abstract":"Digital human models are usually constructed to study the human anatomical or topological features and its variance and to optimize the size and shape of various products and tasks. Therefore, most of the researchers focussed on developing accurate three-dimensional digital human models based on surface mesh using various methods and techniques. However, such models do not allow biomechanical and ergonomic analyses of product interface materials that are in direct contact with the user. Based on manual testing using various materials and analysing the subjective response of users, researchers have shown that product interface material has an important impact on the overall product safety, comfort and even performance. Basic ergonomic and biomechanical guidelines regarding the material choice were provided based on the findings, however detailed material choice and even material parameter determination has not been studied, evaluated, and discussed due to the complex biomechanical systems and lack of appropriate digital human models. To overcome these limitations, numerical methods, especially the finite element method has been already used in the past by several authors. Finite element method allows calculating of various results in terms of internal stresses and contact pressure, deformations, and displacements, however it requires accurate development of numerical digital human models that accurately represent the anatomical, topological, material properties and boundary conditions. In this paper we present theoretical background and provide methodology for successful development of numerical digital human models that can be used for biomechanical analyses and product material ergonomic improvement. This is presented with a case study of the development of a numerical digital human finger model for ergonomic improvement of the biomechanical response of a product handle deformable interface material. Based on the developed numerical model, a novel deformable interface material is analysed that reduces the resulting contact pressure during grasping and provides more uniform pressure distribution while still providing sufficient stability.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125392309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fritzsche","doi":"10.17077/dhm.31740","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17077/dhm.31740","url":null,"abstract":"For planning and designing production and work systems, a holistic approach is necessary that considers both levels of factory planning and workplace design. Currently, separate digital tools are mostly used for the design of factories and the detailed planning of work systems. That leads to workers being considered inadequately or too late in the planning process of production. The consequence can be a time-consuming and costly replanning to solve problems in existing production and work processes. Using the example of an assembly of washing machines, an iterative approach is presented for a combined digital planning on factory and workplace level. A holistic design of the assembly line is carried out using the ema Software Suite, consisting of the ema Plant Designer (emaPD) and ema Work Designer (emaWD). In the case study, emaPD is used to optimize production elements such as operating resources, layout, and logistics by considering the material flow, throughput times, and production costs. These results are applied for detailed planning and design at the workstation level with emaWD, which uses an algorithmic approach for self-initiated motion generation based on objective task descriptions. The generated simulations are examined and optimized based on production time estimation (MTM-UAS) and ergonomic risk assessments (EAWS, NIOSH, reach and vision analysis) as well as workers’ abilities (age, anthropometry). As a result, an efficient factory with an optimized material flow could be planned while minimizing the manufacturing costs and throughput times while complying with the space specifications and ergonomics. The takeover of ergonomically unfavorable processes by robots as hybrid workstations enables, among other things, an improvement in ergonomics. The digital planning approach of combined factory (emaPD) and workplace design (emaWD) also enable early, coordinated, efficient planning of economical and ergonomic production.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123579234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These take-overs are critical moments since the driver needs to take back control of the vehicle as fast as possible. To facilitate this, interior designers need to design the cabin with enough space to carry out this movement. This paper presents a revised modelling approach using mixed linear effects models to predict the grasping movement of the hand during take-over scenarios. A study with 52 participants doing grasping movements was carried out to model the data obtained via motion capture. The participants were instructed to carry out movements from predefined grasping elements mounted in front of them. The trajectory of the hand was recorded using a marker-based motion capturing system. It is observed that the trajectories can be assumed as a two-dimensional phenomenon, since they seem to lie on one plane. Thus, the trajectories were modeled as a 1+2-dimensional problem. A one-dimensional model for the plane and a second two-dimensional model for the trajectory. The model of grasping trajectory described in this paper was modeled using 4 th degree polynomials. In older approaches, the trajectory was modeled in four different models for each constant of the polynomial. In this paper a new modeling approach is used to merge the polynomial into one model. This increased the R² m and R² c drastically and led to three major discoveries on the nature of human grasping movements: Task factors, such as grasping handle and handle position, play the major role in the grasping trajectory. Body height plays a role in the modelling of hand trajectories. Gender, age, and dominant hand show only negligible influence on the trajectory. Other individual human factors not evaluated in this study do not seem to heavily influence the hand movement.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128990902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nitsch","doi":"10.17077/dhm.31761","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17077/dhm.31761","url":null,"abstract":"Forestry workers are at significant risk to suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD). Challenging environmental factors of the forest can have a significant impact on physical workload of motor-manual timber harvesting, which is already considered highly physical work. Conventional observation methods of risk assessment may underestimate specific environmental factors that influence forestry work. In order to determine whether such factors can increase the risk of WMSD and should therefore be integrated into standard risk assessment methods, a field study was conducted with N=10 forestry workers. The effects of environmental factors on physical workload were analyzed using motion capturing, force measures and biomechanical parameters for the activity of manually pulling a steel cable from a skidder winch over a distance of 20 meters in the forest. Type of execution, ground condition and soil slope as environmental factors were varied to investigate their effects on biomechanical parameters. Compressive force and shear force on the L5/S1 disc were calculated using a biomechanical approach. The results indicated that mean compressive and mean shear forces differed significantly depending on the environmental factors type of execution and soil slope. No significant influence of the factor ground condition was found. The combination of all environmental factors showed a significant interaction effect on mean compressive and shear forces. The average maximum values of compressive force did not exceed recommended load limits. However, the average maximum values of shear force exceeded recommended load limits repeatedly by more than 30%, which clearly indicates a health risk. The findings of this biomechanical approach were compared to an assessment with the Key Indicator Method for pushing and pulling, which is a conventional observational method for risk assessment. The comparison indicated that this conventional method might systematically underestimate the influence of some environmental factors in the forest and thus may also underestimate a potential health risk.","PeriodicalId":111717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) and Iowa Virtual Human Summit 2022 -","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117225924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
