| Research Abstract |
To develop good intelligent walker system for rehabilitation, it is very useful to grasp dynamic interaction between human and walker system which is motor driven system. In this study, dynamic behavior of human and walker system is analyzed as a multi- body system.
At first, as a simple example of human systems, dynamics of golf swing is investigated. Numerical calculation by using analysis method for flexible multi-body systems is carried out and it can be seen that interaction between human and golf club affect much on dynamics and feeling of golf swing.
Next, modeling for rehabilitation using walker is discussed. In rehabilitation, safety of patients is very important. We categorize falling phenomena into typical 2 patterns and carry out numerical simulation. Through the calculation for falling phenomena, it can be seen that analysis method for multi-body systems is very useful to design intelligent walker system.
