The course deals with how digital human modelling can be used to evaluate and improve the physical ergonomics of products and workplaces in a virtual product realisation process. Various methods for predicting and generating human motions are treated as well as methods for evaluating the physical load. The course also covers how ergonomic simulation tools can be used to consider anthropometric diversity and where in the product realisation process the use of ergonomic simulation tools fits in.
