Biomechanical modeling and analysis
In parallel with experimental characterization of human movement, in HEIG we are also working on the mathematical and numerical modeling of biomechanical systems. The research activity in this area relies both on fundamental mathematical modeling and on the use of commercial software, in particular:
- AnyBody Modeling System™ and workstation for biomechanical modeling and simulations. Simulation of the human body working in concert with the environment. Advanced simulation capability to calculate individual muscle forces, joint contact-forces and moments and metabolic data.
