Synergy Virtual Ergonomics
The UN sustainability goals and the European and Swedish research agendas describe a need for efficient and effective tools and intervention methods to improve our ability to monitor and prevent disorders and diseases. European and Swedish research agendas also call for efficient digitalisation tools for the design, modelling, simulation, optimisation, visualisation, and forecasting of products and production processes, resources, systems, and factories during their life cycles.
October 2019 - September 2023 Virtual EngineeringVEAP
The overarching purpose of the VEAP research project (KK-stiftelsen/INFINIT Dnr 20160292) is to study the implementation of DHM (digital human modelling) simulation in industrial production system development processes to support proactive consideration of ergonomics issues in early development phases.
January 2017 - December 2019 Virtual EngineeringVirtual Driver Ergonomics
The aim of the Virtual Driver Ergonomics project (KK-stiftelsen/INFINIT Dnr 20160296) was to carry out research related to the development of the Swedish digital human modelling (DHM) tool IPS IMMA so that it is able to assist product developers in the vehicle industry to perform fast and objective virtual driver-vehicle interaction analyses of physical ergonomics.
January 2017 - January 2019 Virtual EngineeringVirtual Verification of Human-Robot Collaboration
The objective of the Virtual Verification of Human-Robot Collaboration project (Vinnova Dnr 2015-03719) is to perform research and development actions needed for the creation of a simulation tool that facilitates efficient and valid simulation of human-robot collaboration and where the consideration of human variation is supported.
January 2016 - December 2018 Virtual EngineeringVirtual Driver
The aim of the Virtual Driver project (KK-stiftelsen/INFINIT Dnr 20140296) was to carry out research related to the development of the Swedish digital human modelling (DHM) tool IMMA (Intelligently Moving Manikins) to further develop the tool so that it can be utilised in the vehicle industry to perform efficient and valid virtual driver-vehicle interaction analyses.
