The purpose of this study is to identify human walking lateral force by using FFT power spectrum from the experimental acceleration data of the human body. An experiment on human walking is carried out on a stationary floor paying attention to higher components of dynamic lateral walking force. It is known that the lateral main component with frequency of fh is applied at half the footfall frequency of
fw (
fh =0.5×
fw). Based on measured lateral acceleration data of the human lumbar, not only main component with frequency of
fh, but also higher component with frequency of 2×
fh, 3×
fh is observed. Characteristics of these higher components of dynamic force by walking are revealed from the dynamic design viewpoint of pedestrian suspension bridges prone to lateral vibration due to the crowd.
