Estimation of human motion using a simplified human-body dynamics model

Recently, in vehicle development, consideration of the human passenger/driver has become increasingly important. In the present study, numerical simulation of human-body dynamics for a human in a vehicle was conducted. Generally, humans are simulated using whole-body models during numerical simulati...
