Automobiles for the World

RAMSIS GLOBAL CONCEPTS is a module for designers who develop vehicle concepts for international markets. Whether SUV, crossover or minivan, throughout the entire product range, this module will provide you with the ideal dimensions for all the important target markets worldwide.

For example, RAMSIS calculates the sitting postures that are body height-depen-dent for vehicles with different seating height concepts—from sports cars to small delivery trucks. For comprehensive analyses, test samples of widely differing nationalities can be generated—so-called boundary manikins. To do this, the body sizes of the manikin are configured with the RAMSIS BodyBuilder, a tool that is based on special, nationally different databases.


Data sets are available for Germany, France, Korea/Japan, USA/Canada, Mexico, South America, USA (NHANES III) and China.

Your advantage?
You can quickly adapt locally developed vehicle concepts to the demands of your global target markets and tackle the necessary design adaptations at an early stage.

THE FUNCTIONS OF RAMSIS GLOBAL CONCEPTS:

International test samples

  • Free selection of 3 additional anthropometrical databases
  • Data is matched to target markets: databases for Central Europe, USA/Canada, Mexico, South America, Japan/Korea, China
  • 90 statistically validated anthropometric types for each database
  • Typology based on body height, proportions and corpulence
  • Secular growth prognosis for taking future body size development into account
  • Direct link to the advanced anthropometrics editor RAMSIS BodyBuilder Pro
  • Selection of task-specific, optimal, international test samples
  • Automatic posture calculation and ergonomics analysis across the international test samples

BodyBuilder Pro

  • Multi-dimensional statistics of anthropometrical data
  • Automated creation of boundary types for specific population groups
  • Automated generation of test samples for design requirements
  • Comprehensive statistics output and statistics functions for anthropometrical analysis

Vehicle concept and task-related posture simulation

  • Automatic calculation of postures for freely definable tasks
  • Posture model, optimally adjustable for the vehicle concept thanks to H-30 size
  • Large variation range from H30 = 140 mm to H30 = 550 mm
  • Passenger H30 posture model for optimal representation of front and rear seat passengers
  • Probability-based optimization of posture selectable for the driver or passenger posture model
  • Posture simulation fully available from RAMSIS Automotive
