Abstract :
Computer simulations provide a framework for exploring the biomechanics of movement. The authors have developed a software system that lets users create computer graphics simulations of human and animal movement. This software provides a platform on which the biomechanics community can build a library of simulations that can be exchanged, tested and improved through multi-institutional collaboration
