Designing Driver Space for Large Car

For the last few decades, three-dimensional human simulation tools have complemented the traditional method of using 2D templates. Human simulation tools are, for example, used for optimizing comfort, fit, reach and vision. In this study, two other methods will be adopted to assist present met...
