Most of the injuries in artistic gymnastics occur at the knee and ankle joints. Excessive loading at these joints leads to anterior cruciate and Achilles tendon ruptures. It is known that such injuries are directly related to the vertical impact force between the ground and feet of the gymnast. The impact force is known to be highly dependent on the pre-programmed muscle activity. In this study the human body is modelled as an open kinematic chain by taking the pre-programmed joint motion into account. The vertical impact force is calculated by solving the system differential equations numerically, and the effect of landing style on the impact force is investigated. In addition, the relation between the dynamic properties of the landing mat and impact force is examined.
