Abstract
To build a criterion of discomfort evaluation, based on the kinematics and the dynamics of the performed movement, is an expectation of the car manufacturers. There is no reference concerning the evaluation of the articulation efforts during the automobile vehicle accessibility movement. On this point, we propose to give a first reference. Our method and our computation were verified by a well known movement, the walking. The automobile vehicle accessibility movement of a young and healthy subject is studied. The articulation efforts presented are coherent with the produced movement’s analysis.
