Abstract

Objective This study aimed to explore the relationships between body force feeling and biomechanics signal during different loads during walking simulation by analysis of their change characteristics, and establish an evaluation model of body force feeling. Methods Six healthy young men were selected to carry three packs under four kinds of load (25, 29, 34, and 37 kg) of 110 min simulated walking test (speed of 5 km/h) by synchronous acquisition of four kinds of load level (25, 29, 34, and 37 kg) of simulated walking test (speed of 5 km/h). Results Mixed effects regression model is adopted to establish the systemic stress evaluation model, and this model can relatively accurately predict body force feeling in the process of walking.
