2 SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference and Exhibition June 9-11, 2009 Radisson SAS Scandinavia Hotel Göteborg, Sweden Dear Colleague, I am personally inviting you to join me in Göteborg, Sweden at the SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference. DHM is the annual meeting for human simulation and modeling and an opportunity for you to learn the latest about the technology and tools shaping the future of design and engineering. Our hosts for this year s conference, VTI and Chalmers University of Technology, also welcome you to Göteborg a city known for the relationship between industry and academia. A high degree of engineering competence and technological development - Ericsson, SKF, Volvo - have ensured the industrial community in Göteborg remains competitive worldwide both in research and development. At the SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference, a particular focus will be on companies that aren t yet using human simulation but where the application areas exist and the benefits are obvious. There will be a special design application session for potential users that are not using digital human modeling tools as yet but are interested in the applications and wish to learn more about the technology and how to get started. Other session topics include: Anthropometry Cognition and Perception Posture and Comfort Design Processes Product Interface Task Simulation Dynamics & Impact A warm welcome to the Swedish west coast! I look forward to seeing you at the SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference. Regards, Tania Dukic, Ph.D. Researcher, Human Factors, VTI Co-Chair, SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling Design and Engineering Conference Roland Ortengren Professor, Chalmers University of Technology Co-Chair, SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling Design and Engineering Conference New Technical Session Titles for 2009: Anthropometry Cognition and Perception Posture and Comfort Design Processes Product Interface Task Simulation Dynamics and Impact Session topics and titles reorganized to meet the industry s needs. 2 SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference and Exhibition

3 Session Topics Applications #1 (Pure Applications) Human models are being applied to an increasing number of engineering design problems and processes, such as visibility, seat design, and manufacturing. This session emphasizes the application of human models, addressing how they are used in a variety of design challenges including: comfort, safety, performance, and efficiency in the design of ground vehicles, mining equipment, testing, assembly processes and products for universal use. Anthropometry This session reveals the latest state-of-the-art technology with regards to human modeling and Anthropometry. Even more, this session also touches on biomechanic experiments and related modeling. The authors will present their results of R&D around the globe. Applications #2 Human models are being applied to an increasing number of engineering design problems and processes, such as visibility, seat design, and manufacturing. This session emphasizes the application of human models, addressing how they are used in a variety of design challenges including: comfort, safety, performance, and efficiency in the design of ground vehicles, mining equipment, testing, assembly processes and products for universal use. Cognition and Perception Digital modeling of humans is not limited to consideration of physical performance. This session concerns the development and use of models of human information input, perception and cognitive processing. Modeling methodology is discussed in the context of analysis application with an underlying theme of predicting human response to design tradeoffs. The ultimate goal is a more complete representation of interactions between the mind and body. Posture and Comfort This session will analyze models of the biomechanical phenomena that influence the perception of comfort and of the biomechanical and perceptual basis of posture. It will explore how these models operate, how they are created, how their output should be analyzed properly, and their benefits. Biomechanics Explore methods of human joint modeling, motion & posture prediction, posture maintenance and impact simulation for reducing traumatic injuries and musculoskeletal disorders.

4 Session Topics Design Processes This session will examine the use of various digital human models in the design process, as well as developments in the design of several digital human modeling applications and software. The papers presented encompass a number of different applications of digital human modeling, as well as several different industries and workplace environments. Product Interface This session presents the results of a number of studies involving the use of digital human models to study the interface between people and a wide range of different products and environments. A number of specific characteristics of the interactions between humans and their environment are presented, such as contact pressure, comfort, ease of ingress and egress, impact-type contact, as well as overall human capabilities in relationship to their work demands. Task Simulation Human models are increasingly used to simulate complex tasks for visualization, training, or ergonomic analysis. This session presents experimental data and models addressing movement coordination, kinematic simulation, and dynamic analysis. Dynamics & Impact #1 Section focuses on the modeling of human kinematics and related injury risks and/or tolerances. Papers cover subject areas including forces experienced by humans as both occupants and pedestrians within varying vehicle-based loading events. Dynamics & Impact #2 (Development of Injury Criteria) Explore methods and applications of human body models for predicting and mitigating crash induced injuries. Small Group Session This session is set aside for those presentations that work best with one-on-one demonstrations, or high levels of audience interaction. Examples of such presentations might be software demonstrations or innovative adaptations of older tools to a new problem. Adequate space is provided for setup of computers or other devices, and sufficient time is allowed for the presenter to go through the presentation several times for different groups of participants. 4 SAE 2009 Digital Human Modeling for Design and Engineering Conference and Exhibition
