Deriving Anthropometrically‐correct 5th Percentile Female from Subject‐specific Female CAD Model

Generating an anthropometrically‐correct human body model (HBM) from CAD data available in open source projects is important for comparing responses of FE human body models with dummies. The current study focuses on development of an anthropometrically‐correct 5th percentile female model from a surface model. Three‐dimensional surface geometry of a female was created based on MRI data of a female human cadaver with a height of 1543mm (Visible Human Project Data: NIH, USA). The techniques involved are statistical and mechanistic in approach to achieve the desired target model.
