Symposium: Digital Human Modeling

The 6th International Digital Human Modeling Symposium 2020 (DHM2020) will be held August 31 to September 2, 2020 in Skövde, Sweden.

The symposium will be hosted by University of Skövde together with Fraunhofer Chalmers Centre and arranged in collaboration with International Ergonomics Association’s Technical Committee on Digital Human Modeling and Simulation.

The symposium will take place at ASSAR Innovation Arena in Skövde, Sweden.

The DHM2020 provides an international forum for researchers to report their latest innovations, summarize state-of-the-art in the field, as well as exchange ideas, results, and visions in all fields of digital human modeling research and applications.
