Abstract

Human body subjected to vibrations experiences multidimensional motion. Seated human body subjected to vertical vibrations exhibits two-dimensional motion in the sagittal plane. An eight degrees of freedom coupled human body model of a seated human with backrest support is developed to depict vertical and fore-aft head motion. The model consists of four rigid masses representing thigh pelvis, lower torso, upper torso, and head. Multi-objective genetic algorithm-based optimization has been used for model parameter identification by minimizing the difference between the experimental and model-derived seat to head transmissibility. The human body model is then integrated with a vehicle model to obtain optimum seat parameters.
