An examination of the various types of human-modeled technology, Advances in Applied Human Modeling and Simulation not only covers the type of models available, but how they can be applied to solve specific problems. These models provide a representation of some human aspects that can be inserted into simulations or virtual environments and facilitate prediction of safety, satisfaction, usability, performance, and sustainability.





Topics include:







Anthropometry and human functional data



Biomechanics, occupational safety, comfort and discomfort

Biometric authentications

Driving safety and human performance

Enhancing human capabilities through aids or training

Fuzzy systems and neural computing

Human behavior and risk assessment modeling

Integrating software with humans and systems

International cooperation in education and engineering research

Intelligent agents in decision training

Intelligent data and text mining

Machine learning and human factors

Modeling physical aspects of work

Monitoring systems and human decision

Psychophysiological indicators of emotion

Resilience engineering and human reliability

Scenario-based performance in distributed enterprises

Special populations

Sustainability, earth sciences and engineering

System-of-systems architecting and engineering

Verification and validation

Virtual interactive design and assessment



The math and science provides a foundation for visualizations that can facilitate decision making by technical experts, management or those responsible for public policy. In considering a systems perspective and decisions that affect performance, these models provide opportunities for an expanded role of engineers and HF/E specialist
