Fact Sheet SAE Technical Committee G-13 Human Modeling Technology and Standards Committee Chairperson: Charles Gidcumb, Boeing Company This committee has the responsibility and authority to develop standards to facilitate human factors assessment for equipment design. For this committee, human modeling technology is intended to: †Improve design quality with respect to human factors †Support the definition of design requirements †Demonstrate physical interaction between the human and the system †Identify risks and costs associated with the man-in-the-loop Activities beyond the scope of this committee include: †Modeling and simulation independent of the human †Simulation strictly intended for non-engineering uses (e.g., training and entertainment)
