Abstract. A model of a five-link mechanism imitating human lower limbs movements is developed with the use of MatLab/Simulink. Approximate trajectories of lower limbs aren calculated analytically using equations of dynamics and their subsequent simplification. The simulation is performed with the use of MPC controller that calculates the required forces using analytically defined trajectories.

Keywords: five-link mechanism, gait modeling, gait dynamics, trajectories of lower limbs movements, MPC controller
