Deformation of Member under Multiple Loadings

Deformation of Member under Multiple Loadings

When a rod is made of different materials or has various cross-sections, it must be divided into parts that meet the necessary conditions for determining the deformation. These parts are each characterized by their internal force, cross-sectional area, length, and modulus of elasticity. These parameters are then used to compute the deformation of the entire rod.
In the case of a member with a variable cross-section, the strain is not constant but depends on the position. The deformation of an...

Background:

Parametric human template models like SMPL (Skinned Multi-Person Linear) struggle with population-specific body shape representation.
Accurate human body modeling is crucial for various applications, including virtual reality and biomechanics.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a 3D model shape optimization method for adapting the SMPL model to specific populations.
To enhance the adaptability and accuracy of parametric human models for diverse demographic groups.

Main Methods:

Generated human models based on SMPL and extracted body sizes to create a dataset.
Established a dataset of body sizes for Chinese adult males.
Calculated body shape differences and optimized the Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) kernel function to map body sizes to shape parameters.

Main Results:

The optimized mapping model significantly reduced the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of human body sizes by 27.7%.
Demonstrated enhanced applicability of the SMPL model for population-specific characteristics.

Conclusions:

The proposed shape optimization method effectively tailors the SMPL model to specific populations.
This approach improves the accuracy and versatility of human body modeling for targeted demographic groups.
