A Probabilistic Model of the Interaction between a Sitting Man and a Seat

Abstract:

This article focuses on the biomechanical evaluation of the interaction between load forces to which a sitting man and the seat are mutually exposed. The load forces, which consider actual dispersion in the human population through histograms, are determined using a probabilistic method known as the Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment (SBRA). A simple flat model shows a basic and high-quality stochastic evaluation of all the forces that affect the man and the seat. The results and methodology can be used in many areas of biomechanics, ergonomics or industrial design.
