The present work delves into the intricate realm of characterizing the musculoskeletal system of an individual. It presents comprehensive models that explore the destruction and subsequent restoration of the endoskeleton's functions through the utilization of exoskeleton technology. An in-depth description is provided of novel modeling approaches that rely on weightless rods of varying lengths, equipped with concentrated masses. Furthermore, the practical application of these models to the numerical simulation of human musculoskeletal movements is detailed.

To enhance the realism and functionality of exoskeleton designs, researchers have developed models featuring variable-length units constructed using absolutely hard sections and sections capable of altering their telescopic type length. These advancements have significant implications for the field of theoretical mechanics, biomechanics, robotics, and related disciplines.

The primary target audience of this book encompasses specialists in theoretical mechanics, biomechanics, robotics, and related fields. It serves as a valuable resource for teachers, as well as graduate students, undergraduates, and senior students pursuing research in the modeling of anthropomorphic biomechanical systems. The comprehensive nature of the content and its practical applications make it an essential tool for advancing knowledge and understanding in this dynamic field.
