Description

Value

H

Body height

Directly given (m)

\(W_\text{BMI}\)

Body mass index

22 (for \(H \ge 1.5\)), \(30(H-1.3) + 16\) (for \(H<1.5\))

m

Body weight

\(H^2 \times W_\text{BMI}\) (kg)

\(\bar{\varvec{I}}\)

Inertial tensor about center-of-mass

\(\text{diag} (\bar{I}_x, \bar{I}_y, \bar{I}_z )\) \(\mathrm (kg \cdot m^2)\)

  

\(\bar{I}_x= \bar{I}_z = 2.42 H^2 + 0.126 m - 4.33\), \(\bar{I}_y = \bar{I}_x/12\) (longitudinal axis)

\(\ell _\text{HS}\)

Distance between wrist and shoulder

\((0.186+0.146) H\) (m)

\(\ell _\text{SG}\)

Distance between shoulder and CoM

\((0.818-0.56) H\) (m)

\(\ell _\text{GA}\)

Distance between CoM and ankle

\((0.56-0.039) H\) (m)

\(\ell _\text{GT}\)

Distance between CoM and toe

\((0.56+0.091) H\) (m)
