This paper describes a technique for the calculation of a lumped-mass representation of a human based on acceleration of body locations, typically obtained from a three-dimensional motion tracking system, and external forces and torques, typically measured from a force plate. The inverse problem of solving for lumped masses is presented, which results in a mass model of the individual subject via a fast, fully automated approach. This method can be used to obtain the mass model per se for the identification of growth deformities or together with a kinematic model for inverse and forward dynamics. Furthermore the mass model and acceleration trajectories subsequently can be used to calculate the contact forces between the floor and the subject at locations remote to a force plate.
