Creating an accurate digital twin of a human user for realistic modeling and simulation

Abstract

Recent applications of digital twins have been used either in a purely technological context (for machines or vehicles), or in purely medical contexts (e.g. in understanding cardiovascular disease).

One school of thought is convinced it is necessary to bring these two parts together by including a digital twin of the user, driver or operator in the technological or medical CAE analysis.

This technical article describes a human body model (HBM) wizard developed for RecurDyn and discusses what is already possible and what is in the development pipeline for the near future. Biomotion Solutions provides software to quickly build HBMs in industrial-grade simulation packages.

Simulating tomorrow's future today: Forty years of EnginSoft and counting

The text provides an in-depth account of Stefano Odorizzi’s journey in founding and growing EnginSoft, our engineering company specializing in computer simulation and modelling. Established in 1984, EnginSoft overcame early challenges, such as the high cost of computing, to emerge as a leader in simulation services, particularly in the fields of mechanical engineering and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The narrative highlights several key milestones in the company’s history.

Tracked Vehicle

RecurDyn offers two Toolkits that are completely dedicated to tracked vehicles

In this example, a tracked bulldozer was simulated to evaluate the dynamic behavior of the vehicle on different terrains and with different obstacles. The model can also be used to calculate the loads operating on the vehicle’s structure..
