"SWUM" and "SWUMSUIT" - A modelling technique of a self-propelled swimmer
The author proposes a Simulation model "SWUM" (SWimming hUman Model) and a Simulation Software "Swumsuit" (SWimming hUman Model with Synthetic User Interface Tools) as its implementation. This modeling technique is developed to analyze various problems in the mechanics of a self-propelled swimmer. The overview of SWUM and Swumsuit are firstly described. Next, the validity of the model is examined by comparing the Simulation results of swimming speed with the actual values for the four strokes. A sufficient agreement between the actual and Simulation was obtained, indicating the validity of SWUM.
