Abstract

This article focus on virtual ergonomics evaluation based on Solid Works. The authors have created the parametric human models based on the software Solid Works. These models have different percentiles; they can switch from one to another rapidly. Not only did the shape simulate from human beings, but also the motion of joints followed the people do. In vehicle design, virtual human model can be used to test if the product is better for people to use when it is just a digital model. So it is available and economic for the engineers and designers at work.
