Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discusses ergonomics in designing passenger facilities in automobiles to improve body support, visibility, ease of operation, safety, and other factors. Among the 31 perspectives are the distribution of automobile trip durations for studies of seat comfort, locating the pelvis in the seated driver, the newness retention of textile automotive seat covers, a new form of the cut-off zone for low-beam headlights, replacing parabolic reflectors by free-form versions, reaction forces of switches and push feeling, and the feature detection of driving actions. Reproduced from papers delivered at a February 1996 international congress in Detroit. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research and study in biomechanics has grown dramatically in recent years, to the extent that students, researchers, and practitioners in biomechanics now outnumber those working in the underlying discipline of mechanics itself. Filling a void in the current literature on this specialized niche, Principles of Biomechanics provides readers with a so
Download or read book Fundamentals of Biomechanics written by Ronald L. Huston and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last three or four decades, studies of biomechanics have expanded from simple topical applications of elementary mechanics to entire areas of study. Studies and research in biomechanics now exceed those in basic mechanics itself, underlining the continuing and increasing importance of this area of study. With an emphasis on biodynamic modeling, Fundamentals of Biomechanics provides an accessible, basic understanding of the principles of biomechanics analyses. Following a brief introductory chapter, the book reviews gross human anatomy and basic terminology currently in use. It describes methods of analysis from elementary mathematics to elementary mechanics and goes on to fundamental concepts of the mechanics of materials. It then covers the modeling of biosystems and provides a brief overview of tissue biomechanics. The author then introduces the concepts of biodynamics and human body modeling, looking at the fundamentals of the kinematics, the kinetics, and the inertial properties of human body models. He supplies a more detailed analysis of kinematics, kinetics, and dynamics of these models and discusses the numerical procedures for solving the governing dynamical equations. The book concludes with a review of a few example applications of biodynamic models such as simple lifting, maneuvering in space, walking, swimming, and crash victim simulation. The inclusion of extensive lists of problems of varying difficulty, references, and an extensive bibliography add breadth and depth to the coverage. Focusing on biodynamic modeling to a degree not found in other texts, this book equips readers with the expertise in biomechanics they need for advanced studies, research, and employment in biomedical engineering.
Download or read book Human Factors in Automotive Design written by Society of Automotive Engineers and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collection of papers from the "Human Factors in Driving," "Human Factors in Automotive Telematics," and "Human Factors in Seating Comfort" sessions of the 2001 SAE World Congress, held March 5-8 in Detroit, Michigan. Papers contribute to the understanding and advancement of the systematic consideration of drivers in relation to vehicles and environments. The primary focus relates to driver information processing, reaction time, and visual-spatial memory. Papers address the ergonomic challenges that the technological explosion of infotainment/telematic systems impose in the design of vehicle interiors. Emphasis is on drivers' distractions and their cognitive implications. Papers encompassing basic research on seating comfort address a range of topical issues related to seating, such as fatigue, ride quality, lateral support while cornering, and methodologies to measure comfort.
