1. Evaluation of Morphed Human Body Models for Diverse Occupant Safety Analysis
Abstract : Female, obese, and elderly occupants are at increased risk of injury in vehicle accidents. Human Body Models (HBMs) are used to represent the human anatomy and to study injury mechanisms in mathematical crash test simulations. READ MORE

2. Body and design : Alternative ontologies in body based design processes
Abstract : The human body is a central aspect in design and is considered to be a fundamental starting point in body-based design processes. During the design process, both the existential and functional aspects of the body are explored in relation to the different activities that need to be considered with regard to the design of clothing, dress, and its association with objects in the world.

3. Towards the Inclusion of Pelvis Population Variance in Human Body Models
Abstract : With a future large-scale introduction of autonomous vehicles, the proportion of intersection crashes on the total number of motor vehicle crashes is expected to increase. The pelvis is frequently exposed to high loads in several of these impacts. READ MORE

4. Volunteer Muscle Activity in Dynamic Events. Input Data for Human Body Models
Abstract : Human body models (HBMs) are virtual human surrogates used to predict kinematic and injury responses during motor vehicle crashes. In recent years, active musculature has been incorporated into HBMs for enhanced biofidelity in simulated emergency scenarios, in particular low-severity crashes and pre-crash situations, where occupant responses are influenced by muscle tension.

5. Muscle Responses in Dynamic Events. Volunteer experiments and numerical modelling for the advancement of human body models for vehicle safety assessment
Abstract : Fatalities and injuries to car occupants in motor vehicle crashes continue to be aserious global socio-economic issue. Advanced safety systems that provide improvedoccupant protection and crash mitigation have the potential to reduce this burden. READ MORE
