Simulating vibration transmission and comfort in automated driving integrating models of seat, body, postural stabilization and motion perception
To enhance motion comfort in (automated) driving we present biomechanical models and demonstrate their ability to capture vibration transmission from seat to trunk and head. A computationally efficient full body model is presented, able to operate in real time while capturing translational and rotational motion of trunk and head with fore-aft, lateral and vertical seat motion. Sensory integration models are presented predicting motion perception and motion sickness accumulation using the head motion as predicted by biomechanical models.
