Three-dimensional biomechanical computer simulation of two-Begged human locomotion

摘要

With the help of LMS-DADS, which is an advanced commercial multi-body systems package, we simulate threedimensional, autonomous human walking on the computer using a model with 34 degrees of freedom. The interface between LMS-DADS and MATLAB-Simulink enables us then to implement physiological muscle models as well as neurophysiological sensors/concepts of sensor fusion and the entire control apparatus of the model. In this way, we hope to gain insight in the basics of natural bipedal walking as well as the effects of physiology on the controller, on movement strategies, on stability and efficiency or on loading, thus leading to construction criteria for walking machines.
