The Impact of the Digital Human Modeling on the Aircraft Interior Projects 2007-01-2466

The main objective of this work is to show a broad view of Digital Human Modeling software as a tool for aiding interior design projects for aircrafts. This will be achieved by showing digital manikins and their use during the development project of an aircraft interior. The time allocated to the design stage could be shortened and the costs concerning mock-up fabrication and certification were lowered because of this program's application during the entire process. The influence can be noted because of the ease to study monuments on high-density configurations, usability and accessibility of the door handles and on-board attendant visibility, etc. This paper is merely conceptual and do not involve existing aircrafts data or in development.
