Abstract
In an aging sociality, walking that is an essential movement for a healthy daily life attracts attention. If we assess a walking change due to aging, we can improve quality of life. The purpose of this study is to simulate human walking using a three-dimensional entire-body structure with both neuronal system and musculoskeletal system and extract parameters of human walking based musculoskeletal properties. Relationship between the parameters and walking speed as a target subject was investigated using the simulator. The relationship between the parameters and age as six subjects was also searched. It was found that the neuronal parameters in the proposed simulation model would represent characteristics of walking styles.
