Virtual human models are widely used to save time and expense in vehicle safety studies. A human model is an essential tool to visualize and simulate a vehicle driver in virtual environments. This research is focused on creation and application of a human model fer virtual reality. The Korean anthropometric data published are selected to determine basic human model dimensions. These data are applied to GEBOD, a human body data generation program, which computes the body segment geometry, mass properties, joints locations and mechanical properties. The human model was constituted using MADYMO based on data from GEBOD. Frontal crash and bump passing test were simulated and the driver's motion data calculated were transmitted into the virtual environment. The human model was organized into scene graphs and its motion was visualized by virtual reality techniques including OpenGL Performer. The human model can be controlled by an arm master to test driver's behavior in the virtual environment.

This study deals with the analysis of the effectiveness of a safer belt in frontal crash. ATB, Articulated Total Body, program is used as a dynamics solver of the occupant model. ATB is a public code, however, the program is somewhat cumbersome to use due to lack of sufficient user interface. A preprocessor and a postprocessor are, therefore, developed for a user friendly graphic interface in Windows environment. Dialog boxes are used for an interface with GEBOD, Generator of Body Data, for human anthropometry and with ADAMS for vehicle dynamics. It is found through three test simulations that simulated results are in good agreement with those obtained by ATB. The effect of the initial slack of safety belt is investigated for frontal crash using the developed program.

본 연구에서는 가상환경 및 시뮬레이션에서 활용이 가능한 인체 모델을 개발하였다. 한국인 인체 측정 자료를 바탕으로 각 지체에 대한 기구학적 특성치와 상관관계를 얻고 인체 모델을 구성하였다. 인체 모델은 17개의 독립된 지체들로 구분되며 조인트로 연결된다. 구성된 모델은 가상환경의 신 그래프(scene graph)상에 자료화되고 DCS를 이용하여 애니메이션이 가능하도록 하였다. Madymo를 이용하여 차량 운전자의 전방 충돌 및 범퍼 통과시 지체의 거동을 해석하고 그 결과 값을 변환하여 OpenGL Performer 라이브러리를 통해 가상 공간에 가시화하였다.
