We outline a phenomenological model to assess friction at the interface between two bodies in mutual contact. Although the approach is general, the application inspiring the approach is the Discrete Element Method. The kinematics of the…

Coordinated human movement depends on the integration of multisensory inputs, sensorimotor transformation, and motor execution, as well as sensory feedback resulting from body-environment interaction. Building dynamic models of the…

Empirical data on the dynamics of human face-to-face interactions across a variety of social venues have recently revealed a number of context-independent structural and temporal properties of human contact networks. This universality…

Humans and animals excel in combining information from multiple sensory modalities, controlling their complex bodies, adapting to growth, failures, or using tools. These capabilities are also highly desirable in robots. They are displayed…

Physical human-robot interaction can improve human ergonomics, task efficiency, and the flexibility of automation, but often requires application-specific methods to detect human state and determine robot response. At the same time, many…

In this research, modeling and analysis of a beam-type touchscreen interface with multiple actuators is considered. As thin beams, a mechanical model of a touch screen system is developed with embedded electrostatic actuators at different…

Communication robots often need to initiate conversations with people in public spaces. At the same time, such robots must not disturb pedestrians. To handle these two requirements, an agent needs to estimate the communication desires of…

Multi-person motion prediction is a challenging problem due to the dependency of motion on both individual past movements and interactions with other people. Transformer-based methods have shown promising results on this task, but they miss…

Simulations of vehicle/track interaction (VTI) in switches and crossings (S\&C) require taking into account the complexity of their geometry. The VTI can be handled via a co-simulation process between a finite element (FE) model of the…

In this study, seated walk, a movement of walking while sitting on a chair with casters, is realized on a musculoskeletal humanoid from human teaching. The body is balanced by using buttock-contact sensors implemented on the planar…

Digital prototyping and evaluation using 3D modeling and digital human models are becoming more practical for customizing products to the preference of a user. However, the 3D modeling is less accessible to casual users, and digital human…

Over the past decades, the addition of hundreds of sensors to modern vehicles has led to an exponential increase in their capabilities. This allows for novel approaches to interaction with the vehicle that go beyond traditional touch-based…

Automated vehicles will allow occupants to engage in non-driving tasks, but limited visual cues will make them vulnerable to unexpected movements. These unpredictable perturbations create a "surprise factor," forcing the central nervous…

There is a growing interest in more intelligent natural user interaction with the car. Hand gestures and speech are already being applied for driver-car interaction. Moreover, multimodal approaches are also showing promise in the automotive…

Computational models of how users perceive and act within a virtual or physical environment offer enormous potential for the understanding and design of user interactions. Cognition models have been used to understand the role of attention…

Poor sitting habits have been identified as a risk factor to musculoskeletal disorders and lower back pain especially on the elderly, disabled people, and office workers. In the current computerized world, even while involved in leisure or…

One of the bottlenecks of automated driving technologies is safe and socially acceptable interactions with human-driven vehicles, for example during merging. Driver models that provide accurate predictions of joint and individual driver…

Human mobility forms the backbone of contact patterns through which infectious diseases propagate, fundamentally shaping the spatio-temporal dynamics of epidemics and pandemics. While traditional models are often based on the assumption…

Physical Human-Machine Interaction plays a pivotal role in facilitating collaboration across various domains. When designing appropriate model-based controllers to assist a human in the interaction, the accuracy of the human model is…

Steering feedback plays a substantial role in the validity of driving simulators for the virtual development of modern vehicles. Established objective steering characteristics typically assess the feedback behavior in the frequency range of…
