Read more3D Digital Design in Ergonomics and Human Factors is the definitive guide to understanding how 3D software impacts the practice of ergonomics and human factors and how it can be utilized successfully in a variety of different settings. It covers interdisciplinary areas, including ergonomics and human factors, 3D digital design, sustainable digital human anatomical design through Open-Source Software (OSS), and advanced technologies in design. It helps readers at any skill level in 2D and 3D design to increase their competency in this ever-growing field of study.
Written in an inclusive, jargon-free way, the book covers the significance of 3D digital design for ergonomics and human factors. It includes an explanation of the structural features of 3D polygonal-mesh modeling and 3D solid modeling (Computer Aided Design—CAD). Within digital OSS, the modeling of anatomical digital humans, integration of AI tools, and advancements in ergonomics, MoCap, and bioengineering for inclusive healthcare are presented in detail. Technologically effective digital OSSs are featured with which the modeling of anatomical digital human, the development of ergonomics and motion capture (MoCap), and ergonomics and bioengineering for inclusive healthcare are possible. Direct useful links to OSS 2D and 3D software and add-ons for expanding the capabilities of digital modelling are presented, and file formats and their extensions receive significant coverage.
This modern and timely book will appeal to students, academics, scientists, and professionals associated with 3D digital design, ergonomics and human factors, digital human modeling, bioengineering, healthcare, information technology, workplace safety, education, and proponents of OSS for 2D and 3D design. It provides readers with the necessary digital tools for their activities and needs by giving real, successful examples from practice.
