Human Kicking Motion Using Efficient Forward Dynamics Simulation And Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of finding and predicting muscle activations for free goal oriented or measured human motion is one of the basic problems in biomechanics. While currently inverse dynamics approaches are most commonly used for their computational efficiency, they can not handle the problem in its most general form. We here present computational methods that increase the computational efficiency of the forward dynamics approach by two orders of magnitude. Results are presented for a time optimal kicking motion and the analysis of a measured kicking motion. Current work includes investigation of a jumping motion and finding optimal walking motions for a robot that is driven by artificial muscles. Keywords— human kicking motion, efficient forward dynamics simulation and optimization, direct collocation, goal oriented motions, analysis of measured motion

From Robots to Humans: towards Efficient Forward Dynamics Simulation and Optimization Exploiting Structure and Sensitivity Information
The locomotion of quadruped and humanoid robots shares some characteristics with the one of animals and humans: a kinematic tree structure and a free-floating base, switches in the model due to different contact situations and a high number of degrees of freedom consisting of many links and many actuated joints. One main difference is in actuation: while robots commonly are driven by (at most) ...

متن کاملEfficient Forward Dynamics Simulation and Optimization of Human Body Dynamics
The modeling of the time dependent, dynamic behavior of the human musculoskeletal system results in a large scale mechanical multibody system. This consists of submodels for the skeleton, wobbling masses, muscles and tendons as redundant actuators. Optimization models are required for the simulation of the muscle groups involved in a motion. In contrast to the inverse dynamics simulation the fo...
