User's Guide for Combiman Programs (COMputerized BIomechanical MAN-Model), Version 7.

Abstract

This User's Guide describes the procedures to operate the Air Force Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory's (AFAMRL) COMputerized BIomechanical MAN-model (COMBIMAN) programs. The Guide is based on the programs as of December 1984. The Guide includes an introduction to the man-model and the conventions used to develop and analyze crew station configurations. It also deals with the operations of the programs included in the COMBIMAN system. These programs include the interactive graphics program CBM07 and the three key data base creation/modification programs CBMAM, CBMCM and CBMVM, which create and maintain the Data Bases of anthropometric surveys, crew station configurations, and visibility contour definitions, respectively. The guide also contains a complete description of the use of CBMOFF, the off-line plot program. For the convenience of users without an on-line plotting capability, the program CBMO7NpL is included in this version to use in place of CBMO7. The guide to operate the four main programs includes descriptions of the processing capabilities for each program, definitions and examples of all input and output data formats, procedures to execute the programs, and explanations of all diagnostic messages generated by the programs.
