This is important for designing spacecraft and for determining the effects of pressure suit design on crew fit and mobility for extravehicular activity (EVA) and intravehicular activity (IVA),
This paper presents a bespoke pendulum test device for impacting wrist protectors when fitted to a wrist surrogate. The rig can replicate injury risk scenarios, while measuring temporal forces and wrist extension angles.

A potential contributory factor to the rise in obesity is the failure of people to recognise weight gain. If we, or our health services, cannot accurately index body size, then the appropriate compensatory behaviours which might reduce weight will not be undertaken.
It is concluded that the proposed posture correction approach can effectively improve the accuracy of the hand SSM and therefore enables its wide usage in human-integrated digital twin applications.
The purpose of this research was to introduce the use of 4D scanning technology to understand breast shape in motion. Twenty-six female participants who identified themselves as wearing Missy Size 18 were recruited for scanning. Three most common bust measurements were tracked in dynamic states and compared with the static state.
This study believes 3D printed templates usage increases time efficiency, improves the match of skin flaps in donor and recipient arms, and allows us to control the amount of skin surplus without skin flap tip necrosis. In these procedures where time is of the essence, this team believes pre-operative planning is imperative for its success.
A 3D scan database of 200 healthy subjects (100 men and 100 women) performing hand motions was gathered using a 3dMD scanner. All subjects were scanned performing a movement at a frame-rate of 7.5 fps, resulting in ±100 scans per subject. Based on those scans, a new SSM was built with the help of the artificial SSM.
A customized mask fabricated for each subject using 3dMD facial scanning and modern additive manufacturing processes.
