The purpose of this paper is simulation parameters of human walking in normal and pathological conditions. Modeling does possible to determine dynamic characteristics of motion and to optimize designs of walking mechanisms, prostheses, orthoses, implants and more. In developing the model of human walking, we used a special case of the Lagrange equation of the second kind. The experiment was conducted by video analysis of real gait of people of different ages and sex. As a result of the simulation the speeds and accelerations of all links of the model, moments in joints, and peak values of moments are determined. Simulation of human walking makes it possible to develop technical specifications for the design of walking mechanisms, prostheses, implants and more.
