Table 3.

First-order sensitivity indices (Sx) of F* (body–floor impact model), F (ground–skeleton force-transfer model) and ARF0 (multiscale model) to various model input. Key: m, body mass; θf, final angle of fall; ηP, postural attenuation coefficient; H, body height; ηI, impact attenuation coefficient; 〈S〉, bone strength averaged over all impact orientations
