Ranking of Human Senses in Relation to Different In-flight Activities Contributing to the Comfort Experience of Airplane Passengers

“…Anthropometry was mentioned most often by the interviewees, followed by climate, sound, vibration and light. Although smell was not mentioned by any of the participants, Bubb et al (2015) suggested that smell must be a factor that contributes to comfort as well, because there is a direct connection between smell and the part of the brains that is responsible to emotion. Bubb et al (2015) attributed the fact that smell is not mentioned by the participants to the unawareness of the participants, since they never experienced the effect of smell on comfort.…”

“…To indicate their relative significance, Bubb et al (2015) proposed a generic hierarchical model of six discomfort sensations. In descending order, these are anthropometry, climate, sound, vibrations, light and smell.…”

“…Many factors influence passengers' comfort, such as expectations and environment (De Looze et al, 2010;Vink & Hallbeck, 2012). According to Krist (1993) and Bubb et al (2015), comfort is established through six factors: anthropometry, climate, sound, vibrations, light and smell. These factors have been applied to airline travel in the following subsections.…”

Area-wide real-world test scenarios of poor visibility for safe development of automated vehicles

“…The focus is on the capabilities of sensor technology and data processing particularly with regard to those functions that relate to the primary driving tasks (Navigation, Maneuvering and Stabilization). Driving in these corresponding driving sections has changed significantly -especially in terms of supporting the maneuvering taskas compared to previous driving habits [22]. The aim is to focus on global technical harmonization of legislation, ethics, standards and tests (see Fig.…”

Natural Virtual Reality User Interface to Define Assembly Sequences for Digital Human Models

“…Therefore, companies use digital human models (DHMs), which are digital representations of human beings. They are used to design secure and efficient workplaces and processes [2]. Such DHMs are often integrated into computer-aided software systems (JACK by Siemens PLM (Siemens PLM 2016), RAMSIS by Human Solutions [3] as well as the HUMAN from Dassault Systèmes [4]).…”
