Abstract
A technique to compute three orthogonal components of the angular momentum of the human body is presented. The procedure is basically a development of an earlier one which computed only one component of angular momentum. The angularmomentum of the whole body was considered to be composed of the sum of the angular momenta of 14 body segments about the center of gravity of the whole body. The angular momentum of each segment was considered to be composed of local term about a transverse axis of the segment and local term about the longitudinal axis. The values of all terms were computed, except those of the local terms about the longitudinal axis of the non-trunk segments, which were assumed to be zero. This assumption was shown to involve little error. Verf.-Referat
