ADVANCES IN HUMAN BODY MODELLING USING MADYMO

In many studies MADYMO has been used to simulate the behaviour of the human body in -mainly- impact conditions. Besides mathematical models describing crash dummies, models directly based on the human body have been applied. Such biomechanical models are discussed. (A) For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 875886.
