2. 1. Computer Manikins in Evaluation of Manual Assembly Tasks

   Author : Dan Lämkull; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; computer manikin software; virtual ergonomics; manikin appearance; digital human modelling; ergonomics evaluation; posture wizard; working posture;

   Abstract : Digital human modelling (DHM) tools have been introduced in industry to facilitate a faster and more cost efficient design process. The research in this thesis is directed towards the DHM-tool-users’ needs and the objective is to identify difficulties and shortcomings, and identify requirements for improving the output of DHM-simulations.
