A New Lower Extremity Modeling of Human Body With Variable Feet Links

Résumé

Human movement modeling has been the object of much research for the past 30 years. In these models the position of foot link was fixed on the ground. We propose to model the feet links as variable, since the position of foot pressure center changes from heel to toes. The ground reaction forces could also be analyzed in real time. We examined this model for some static postures. In standing anatomical position, the maximum articular forces are localized in hip and knee joints. In sagittal plane, the ground reaction force vectors are positioned nearly under ankle joints. The pathological postures like body with pes cavus or with global spine kyphosis increase the articular and muscular forces. In these cases, the position of ground reaction force vectors is moved toward the toes.
