Abstract
This work presents a complete biomechanical model of the pilot's upper part of the body, which includes the torso, the head and both upper limbs. The model is used to investigate the biodynamic feedthrough, namely the involuntary motion of the control inceptors that is caused by the acceleration of the cockpit. The model is coupled with a detailed multibody model of a helicopter.
