Abstract

This paper presents principles of designing multisegment mechanical system. Represented is a model of a single segment, its extension in form of a couple of segments and the final construction – a fragmentary and simplified silhouette of a human form named the biped. This paper describes procedure of construction of the biped’s digital model using Matlab package. It also discusses test run of a single experiment and algorithm of the calculations realized in the single step of integration.
