Welcome to visit Dr. Yang's research group within the Department of Mechanical
Engineering, Texas Tech University.
Objective:
The
purposes of the Human-Centric Design Research Lab are
(1) to
advance the understanding of human movement capabilities by means of
modeling, simulation and experimentation, and develop computer software package
that facilitates human-centric design, biomechanics analysis, ergonomics
assessment, injury prediction, traffic safety system including digital human
visibility prediction and human performance assessment.
(2) to model and simulate the interaction between the human and personal
protective equipment (helmets, goggles, and respirators, clothing, shoes,
etc.) for hazard and discomfort assessments.
(3) to promote intelligent for digital human models and simulate the action
and interaction of individual digital human.
(4) to advance computer-aided design and simulation of mechanical systems.
(5) to understand wellbore systems by modeling and simulation.
(6) to enhance traffic safety systems by developing tools/models.
(7) to contribute renewable energy system through modeling and simulation
(optimization of wind turbine performance, and human factors related wind
turbine design and maintenance.
