The purpose of this study was to propose a methodology to describe the dynamics of the whole-body and pole system during pole vaulting motion for the development of a pole vault simulator. The whole-body was modeled as a system of 15-rigid linked segments, and pole was modeled as N segments with elastic rotary joints. In the modeling of the whole-body, the constraint axes of the elbow, knee and other joints were considered. Each hand was considered to be connected with the pole through zero DOF virtual joint. The equation of motion with respect to the whole-body and pole was obtained from 1) the equation of motion for each segment, 2) equations for constraint condition in which adjacent segments are connected by joint, and 3) equations for the constraint axes of joints. We can calculate the forces exerted by each hand on the pole from the force vectors which is obtained in the process of deriving the equation of motion with respect to the pole vaulter and pole system.
