Human Component Introduction

Introduction

The Human mesh component is an external mesh structured around an internal wire skeleton that is parameterized for your design. This component is intended to model the 5% to 95% statistical human form by using several anthropometric and pose settings which will alter the size, stature, posture, and pose. Because this mesh is generally watertight, you are able to run a variety of analyses in OpenVSP on this component such as mass properties, surface areas and volume, and even aerodynamics in VSPAERO. You may also export an STL of the human model for 3-D printing.
