Le travail de recherche concerne la simulation cinematique du mouvement d'entree dans un vehicule automobile. La demarche proposee pour resoudre ce probleme complexe se decline en 4 etapes. La premiere etape consiste a construire une base de mouvements "coherents." Pour cela, les angles articulaires estimes lors de l'entree dans un vehicule sont corriges de facon a faire suivre aux pieds, apres reconstruction du mouvement, leurs trajectoires experimentales. Dans la seconde etape, les mouvements d'entree dans un vehicule automobile sont analyses afin d'identifier et de caracteriser des classes de mouvements. Chaque classe est alors representee par un sujet caracteristique. La troisieme etape exploite cette connaissance sur le mouvement afin de modeliser une "partie" du mouvement a simuler. Cette partie regroupe les trajectoires tridimensionnelles des pieds et du centre de masse du tronc, ainsi que l'orientation spatiale du tronc qui peuvent ainsi etre simulees pour un nouveau sujet. Enfin, sur cette base, la derniere etape consiste a determiner par cinematique inverse l'evolution des angles articulaires permettant l'animation du modele squelettique.
