Abstract/Summary

Consider the problem of how to simulate a 3D human model free-falling from a certain height and reacting impulsively on the external forces around it such as wind forces, gravity and ground impact. Included and considered as external forces are solid objects or obstacles that may get in contact with the model in its trajectory. Since the human body is very dynamic the research will only cover the statistical measurements of the human body and an approximation of its reactive movements.
