Summary:

The objective of this effort is to create a methodology to posture and position equipped manikins in Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software for ground vehicle workstation design. A collaborative effort is taking place to evaluate the current practices used to posture and position both physical and digital human representations. The goal of the group is to determine how best to utilize posture and position data to update positioning procedures. Data from the Seated Soldier Study and follow-on studies is being utilized to develop statistical models using multivariate analysis methods. Design is the first area of focus across the broader design-develop-evaluate process. The products to address this need are parametric CAD accommodation models with imbedded Digital Human Models (DHMs). Developing updated positioning procedures for each of the manikins will provide a traceable justification for positioning manikins based on Soldier data
