Abstract

In this paper, a biomechanical model of human body is proposed to evaluate the biodynamic responses to vertical vibration and transmitted accelerations for the seated position without backrest supp...

Highlights

  • Investigation of vibrations transmitted from automotive to the human body, for evaluating comfort parameters, always has been a concern for car manufacturers

  • The vibration transmissibility rate in Chest and Torso has the highest value among all segments, while this amount in Pelvis for the contact with seat has the lowest value

  • In this study, the automotive passenger body is modeled by a 6-DoF lumped parameter model without backrest
