Abstract
We show fast running ability of Tyrannosaurus Rex by biomechanical calculation. Locomotion of T-Rex is calculated on the basis of human locomotion. Solid body model, Fourier expansion, and random algorithm are used to obtain the motion. As a result, possibilities for fast funning increases several times than Hutchinson's estimation.
