| Description: |
International audience ; Consideration of physical dimensions of the user population is essential to design adapted environment. Thisvariability in body dimensions (called "anthropometry") is involved in design tools commonly used today toassess user’s accommodation (physical mock-ups, population models, database, boundary manikins, hybridmethods or digital human modeling). Databases are created from campaigns of measurement. Besides thefact that such measures are costly in time and money, they give more "static" measures of man. They do nottake into account possible stretching limbs that could allow increased accessibility. This paper presents amethodology for human body modeling, in a dynamic way, not static. The methodology allows to highlightinfluences of design and human behaviour on reach skills, directly induced by the interaction with realprototypes and not just considered by human physical dimensions. The first part of the method is to createa database of measurements (arms length, hip breadth.). From these data, a model of accessibility isproposed. The accessibility field is determined purely numerically. In parallel, an experiment is set up tomeasure the extension of the accessibility field, with the same people. A comparison of the results is thenperformed and a new model of the human body is proposed. |
