- To solve the problems of improvement of the existent and creation of new efficient lower limb prostheses, and to study effect of prosthesis design, as a special technical device, on kinematical dynamical energetical and other characteristics of amputee locomotion it is expedient to use wide capabilities of mathematical modelling of a human walk process on a prosthetic limb. There was proposed earlier mathematical models of biped walk having different degrees of adequacy in multitude of works. These models were used for different purposes: investigation of kinematical dynamical and energetical characteristics of human gait, working out and creation of antropomorphic walking machines, etc. In the given paper a mathematical model has been proposed for investigation of dynamics of an amputee's locomotor system with a below-knee prosthesis. Based on this model computer program has been composed. The series of problems of dynamics of a two-leggal walking, calculation of consumption of energy on motion and optimization of elastic parameters of the prosthetic foot design have been solved.
