Abstract
The paper presents a three dimensional parametric model of human body implemented in the environment of MSC Adams software and created for the needs of simulating behaviour of an orthotic robot. In the 16-member model properties of particular members – masses, dimensions, positions of the centres of gravity, mass moments of inertia – are dependent on the basic parameters of the human represented by his height and body weight. The accepted assumptions as well as simplifications in the model are presented. The model is to be employed while developing a ‘Veni-Prometheus’ System for Verticalization and Aiding the Motion in order to introduce a capability of realizing turns.
