Abstract During every day life, unexpected external disturbances are a common event. Especially for elderly people and individuals with mobility disorders maintaining balance is a challenging task. Several biomechanical and physiological studies have been conducted to investigate strategies of human balancing during quiet standing and also during disturbances (Winter, 3(4), 193–214, 1995 [243], Loram, Lakie, 543(3), 1111–1124, 2002 [244], Crenna, Frigo, 437(1), 635–653, 1991 [245]). However, many questions concerning the mechanisms of the human’s biomechanical system strategy still remain unanswered.
