The 7th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium (DHM 2022) will be held August 29–31, 2022, in Iowa City, Iowa, USA.

The symposium will be hosted by the University of Iowa Technology Institute and arranged in collaboration with the International Ergonomics Association's Technical Committee on Digital Human Modeling and Simulation. The Iowa Virtual Human Summit (IVHS) will immediately follow DHM on the afternoon of the final day of DHM 2022. The Graduate Iowa City hotel and conference center is the venue for DHM 2022 and IVHS.

Scope

DHM2022 provides an international forum for researchers to report their latest innovations, summarize the state of the art in the field, and exchange ideas, results, and visions in all fields of digital human modeling research and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Anthropometry and 3D human body modeling
• Human functional data (e.g., joint maximum strength, joint range of motion)
• Musculoskeletal human models
• Motion capture and reconstruction
• Posture and motion simulation
• Modeling for subjective responses (e.g., ingress/egress, seat comfort)
• Applications and software demonstration
• Virtual reality and DHM
• Mental/cognitive models and integrated models
• Older, disabled, and other special populations
• Verification and validation of DHMs
• Model standards and protocols
• Body part modeling (spine, pelvis, head, hand and foot modeling)
• Virtual humans' appearance
• Biomechanical modeling
• Human vibration modeling
• DHM in safety applications
• DHM in game applications
