Abstract
This paper proposes a two-link segment model of a standing human controlled by reflex and voluntary movements. Time responses of body sway in physiological experiments are replicated by the simulation using the two-link model. Simulating a decline of human standing ability due to aging, we clarify the relation between the cause of falling and loss of function in old age.
