Abstract: In the paper five different models have been examined in order to test their ability to describe relationship between EMG and force moment generated by moving upper or lower limb. In system analysis point of view it can be utilised for diagnostic purpose i.e. conversing subjective methods using by physician to new one based on objective measured data.
