Analysis of sitting comfortability of drivers' seat by contact shape

Article Abstract:

The design of a more comfortable driver seat requires the consideration of a number of interdependent and personal-related factors. Research has shown that a comfortable seating posture depends on seat surface deformation characteristics, body build parameters and individual sitting postures. This suggests that the automated design of automobile seats should take into account body shape and elasticity values as well as sensitivity resolution and distribution of target subjects.
