In order to assess the seating and riding comfort design of a vehicle seat in an objective manner, finite element occupant models with anatomically precise features have been developed. The human body models are incorporated into Pam-Comfort, a tool for automotive seat design and analysis, as parts of occupant surrogates that also include HPM I and II. In this paper, the detailed process of FE human body modeling including an effort on the implementation of new anthropometry will be introduced. The validation of some features of human body models in seating and riding comfort simulation against human experiments will be also presented. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
