Abstract

In order to evaluate and design seats ergonomically, a human-seat interface model was developed as part of a multi-factorial ergonomic design study. It used three-dimensional computer graphics: a Korean contour model for the seatpan and the seatback. Using seatpan and seatback contour measuring equipment, a 18 x 15 and 15 x 15 contour was developed for each subject. The proposed systematic approach of quantitative measurements and evaluation will provide for performance and comfort in seating.
